About


I have been working with stained glass for over 14 years.


After 2 years learning the craft (1996 – 1998) at The City Lit and Kensington & Chelsea College, I worked at The Stained Glass Guild in Wandsworth, eventually becoming head painter. Using traditional kiln-fired paints, much of the work involved designing and painting the highly detailed and decorative glass roundels typical of the Victorian era.


I left after 4 years there, moving to Bridport, Dorset, where I still live with Mike and our 2 crazy little girls.


Since 2004 I have run my own stained glass business - recent commissions have included a window for The Bull Hotel, Bridport and front and rear entrances for an orthodontist practice in Dorchester.


In the last 2 years, I've concentrated on making contemporary decorative stained glass items in bold colours with a strong graphic aesthetic, which I sell online (Folksy and Etsy) and in select shops and galleries.
