Angels for Hexham Abbey

2012-01-04T08:39:00.000-08:00

Work for Hexham Abbey's exhibition end of January is new made specifically for the ‘Angels of Northumberland’ exhibition.

Inspired by Angels I have used Vanilla and White Opal glass creating a reaction between the two glass colours with Lead and Sulphur bearing elements in the glass. I am left with wonderful results. Delicate, gentle, sympathetic and graceful pieces. I hope you agree.

The Diversity of Glass

2011-08-17T00:47:00.000-07:00

Abstract, quirky, sculptural Glass Artists Amanda Heath, Richard Bell, Sarah Hayhoe and Stained glass Artist Janet Rogers encapsulate the beauty, brilliance and diversity of glass in very different forms. Amanda's sculptured forms inspired by fossils of Dorset's Jurassic Coast embrace the raw power of free flowing molten glass, making a stunning contrast to Janet's vibrant contemporary stained glass panels. Enjoy Richard Bell's unique bubble tank counterbalanced to create the illusion of hanging precariously over the edge of the surface and not to be missed Sarah Hayhoe's architectural forms enhancing the Walled Garden
