Glass Workshops & Mentoring
Discover the possibilities of glass in a relaxed and welcoming studio environment. My classes are suitable for complete beginners as well as those wishing to develop their existing skills.
Class sizes are intentionally small, giving you plenty of individual guidance and time to build your confidence.

Small, friendly classes taught in my West Sussex studio.
Glass Mentoring Days — By appointment

My aim is to help you become an independent maker - as you need less guidance, the mentoring price reduces accordingly.
One to one day
£250.00
Shared day for two
£400.00
Focused guidance for your ideas and projects
Tailored one-to-one or shared mentoring in kiln-formed and stained glass. We begin with a conversation about your experience, aims and what you want to achieve, then create a session, or series of sessions, that give you focused guidance and practical support. These sessions are suitable for glass artists and makers who would like dedicated time to explore a particular process, develop an idea, solve a technical problem or gain greater confidence in their work.
How to arrange your day
Mentoring days are not available for instant online booking. Before arranging a session, we will have an initial conversation about your current experience, what you would like to achieve and how the day can be shaped to suit you.
Learning Glass with me
With more then 30 years working with glass and more then 20 years teaching experience. I combine traditional skills with contemporary approaches. I hold a BA (Hons) in Glass and Ceramics and teach patiently, in a supportive environment with a maximum of three people in any session.
“With glass, there is always more to discover—every surprise is part of the learning.”
What my students say
Firstly, a huge ‘thank you’ for my 2 days of leaded light last week. I learnt so much and really enjoyed myself.
