Artist Bio

I am a small batch Magical Glass artist who draws inspiration from the whimsical side of life and selects playful, celebrated colours that invoke happy nostalgia to compose my works. Patterns, texture and surface decoration motivate my play. For the receiver of my glass to hold a beautiful object that entices one to explore its surface is something that I strive for. I want you to pick up a drinking glass or other glass object and feel connected to it through its colours, form and texture. I work as a solo glass blower in my studio on Vancouver Island and learnt to blow glass in New Zealand; where I grew up. I was very fortunate to help make the blown glass for the Hobbit movies while I was attending the Wanganui Glass School. Being immersed in the process of blowing glass is my passion and the intensity of the act is something I love and find therapeutic. Just as bees live to produce honey, I live to produce glass and I will forever be exploring how to create magical items for the world to behold.
