Finished Piece

And I didn't make a mistake - very proud of myself!

In progress

This new piece os taking shape. It's so detailled it's taking forever. I hope I don't make a mistake at the end...

The shadow is as exciting as the artwork!

Papercut Design for Frosted Window Film

This papercut would make a great design as frosted window film. It'll be at my next exhibition in Surrey in May.

Keep a look out for it over the next few weeks whilst I develop this idea!

Studio

This is an image of work in progress in my studio today. I'm getting it ready to take to several exhibitions that I'm attending in the summer.

Papercut

Seek & Adore

I've been having trouble photographing my glass and getting a good representational image for  www.seekandadore.com  These are the latest which are listed on their website at the moment.

Internal Door Panels

This glass was designed for a newly built Arts & Crafts style house in Exeter. The client chose the following 4 designs from a number of sketches for each of the sets of 4 glass panels and these were then made in sandblasted and carved glass. The photographs show the finished glass from the right hand design before it left my studio

Papercut and Sandblasted Splashback commission

This commission was for a kitchen splashback. The design reflects the area in which the client lives and includes an image of their house.
A papercut was created from the original drawing, and the artwork for the sandblasting stencil was created digitally from that. This is slightly more complex as it allows for 2 depths of sandblasting.
The panel will be fixed to the wall using chrome mirror screws.

Papercut

Yet more papercuts with which I'm exploring ways of introducing elements of colour yet still keeping the flatness and sharpness of the papercut (although the background is actually cream, not blue as it looks here!)

Papercuts

I LOVE papercutting and I continue to cut like mad when not working on commissions for glass. I use similar stencil techniques to create my sandblasted glass, but they are destroyed in use. By turning the process around and starting with a papercut from which to create the digital sandblasting stencil, I am able to push my work in a slightly different direction.
Here is one of my favourites so far..!
