New casting and fusing workshops for 2012
New dates are announced for exciting glass workshops to be run from the studio. For the first time, I'm offering casting workshops in the Spring to the members of public, as well as continuing to teach fusing workshops.
It is possible to book on line, but you may prefer to call me directly on my studio or mobile number. Also please feel free to forward the information to interested parties. You can call myself for further information regarding any of the workshops.

Theresa Easton and myself will again be taking part in ‘The Late Shows’, www.thelateshows.org.uk/home.html.

It’s a great opportunity to come and look around the studio and find out information of forthcoming classes in glass fusing, glass silk-screening, glass painting as well as printing and book making.

International Summer Academy: ‘Bild-Werk’ Frauenau.
I have just returned from Bild-Werk Frauenau, Bavaria, Germany teaching decorative techniques for flat glass in August. I had a great time working with students at all different stages of their careers, many professional people delving into the world of glass, as well as students fresh out of Technical School. I again had my fantastic technical assistant Birgit Offner working alongside me helping me with translations as well as providing myself and my students with invaluable technical support.
