Fused Glass is the art of melting glass together, there are many ways of achieving unusual effects and sometimes it can be unpredictable as to what happens but this is what makes it exciting.
Sometimes I use found objects such as driftwood and combine them with fused glass to create pieces such as the sea hangings which gives me a great excuse to hang about the lovely beaches of Fife and various parts of Scotland, collecting driftwood etc. I have also begun using photographic images in my work using a ceramic printing process which enables the images to be fired into the glass permanently.
All pieces are handmade, unique and are never repeated, the free standing pieces individually signed and dated but the sea hanging pieces are not.
