Biography:

I began working in stained glass in 1994. Having a passion for coloured light, I was immediately hooked.

I trained at Glowing Panes Glassworks in Thornhill, Ontario under the instruction of Laura Heathcote. After moving to Bath, I attended classes taught at the The Glass House and Northshore Glass. The glass techniques that I have learned include stained glass, mosaic stepping stones/wall art, and fused glass.  

My work is inspired by nature and I try to capture its colour and texture using abstract designs. The medium of glass allows me to create abstracts using geode stones, fused glass pieces, and textured glass. I try to use colours that are rich and contrasting yet calming.

Since 2007, I have attended the following shows:

Ø       Bath Artisan’s Art & Craft Shows

Ø       Women’s Art Festival Kingston

Ø       Fanfayr Kingston

Ø       Buckhorn Art & Craft Show

Ø       Art Among the Ruins in Newburgh

Ø       Tweed  & Area Heritage Art & Artisan Sale

Ø       Cobourg Waterfront Festival
