Exhibition 23rd June 2017
Lately I have been doing restoration work and new commissions. I am taking part in the outdoor exhibition at the BOA Arts Festival which begins this weekend. In this exhibition I show stained glass and fused hand painted glass work. My workshop where I make windows of stained glass for private or public places is cool in the hot weather, thank goodness. On the farm the swallows swoop around the yard, flying into my workshop too! At the workshop one of my design's has been approved and a brand … [Read more...]
March winds and April Showers

Restoring the windows of historic buildings and churches will give … [Read more...]

I am re-leading and re-painting broken quarries for eleven windows in all, it is quite a steady flow of energy into the repairs. Some quarries are the same … [Read more...]
Winter winds of December
All the seasons have their natural changes. Winter always make me feel like hibernating to keep warm. Wearing layers of clothes give softness against the chill wind. My stained glass studio is warm, a really hearty place to work. Exhibitions I have been beavering away in my studio making stained glass roundels for Christmas as commissions and for sale at the Christmas Fair. Preparation is always good for doing anything in the workshop. I love to carefully prepare my stained glass designs as … [Read more...]
