About Sue

I create fused glassware from my studio in Barnstaple. My initial inspiration is taken from the colours of the sea, preferring to use various shades of blue, green and azure. Using flat sheets of Bullseye fusible glass as the starting point, I produce spectacular dishes, bowls and tiles and also a small range of jewellery.

I have lived in North Devon with my husband since 1970. After bringing up our four children, I studied with the OU for over 10 years, gained my MA (Education) and taught chemistry/science at the local secondary school for many years before looking at developing my other interests. In 2001 I ventured into a new area of working with kilnfired or fused glass.

My background as a science teacher and, previously as a stained glass artist, has given me an understanding of the manufacture of glass and its properties, which in turn has enabled me to develop a product that I am proud to display.
