Kilnformed glass

This is some of my work, all handmade. No two pieces are alike. You can also view my portfolio by colors: black, white, multi, cool, warm.

Some items are no longer available for purchase, but certainly let me know if you’re interested in a particular piece since I might have something similar or can design a new one for you.

Fun “batiky” bowls and plates created by designing patterns into layered glass powder sifted on sheet glass:

After many postponements due to the pandemic, I was fortunate to participate in a fantastic workshop to create an incredibly detailed pattern in glass under the instruction and guidance of Ian Chadwick who generously shared his technique and experience in special workshops across the US.
