Pricing Increases:

As some of my staple colours I will be increasing my prices accordingly with my raw materials.

its a big increase Silver has gone up 50% this year and Germanium has also more then doubled.
I have tried to keep costs down but I cannot with theses increases anymore.

I have been quiet on Social media for a long while. I find it quite overwhelming with everything else that has been happening the past year and recent few months.

I have returned South, after long considerations, Dom, Cheddar, the chickens and I have found a beautiful little place to live just outside Pulborough at Charlton Ironworks with a large workshop, and a shared showroom on site. I am almost unpacked and ready to start melting again!

I have room enough for 3- 4 teaching torches for Beginner Lampwork Sculpture teaching sessions. The August sessions are available to book now on my website and I will release more dates soon!

It was very sad leaving Stone and I am so glad Nik and I made a go of The Gallery, but the call home has pulled me back.

I have also been accepted as an artist in residence at the UCA Farnham as part of the Craft AiR Programme. More on that later.

Some snaps of what I’ve been working on recently finally got round to taking some photos of them.
it was originally going to be a moving parts piece, however this composition works better.

This piece is currently not for sale, as I am waiting to hear from if it’s been accepted into to an exhibition.

I’ll keep you posted!
