Lampwork artist - I make glass beads and then make jewellery out of them. All done in my little studio in Brisbane.

I work on a Bethlehem Barracuda torch with 8lpm oxycon and bottled gas. I also have a digital-controlled kiln to anneal my beads for strength and durability.

I get my inspiraton mostly from textiles and fashion magazines. Sometimes from nature, Ernst Haeckel's drawings, creatures from the deep blue sea, other artist's work, Del Kathryn Barton, Romance was Born...
