My work has developed from stained glass suncatchers and landscapes to work that challenges thinking and raises awareness. I create fused and stained glass portraits of people who have shaped our world. They might be educators, artists, musicians, activists, civil rights campaigners, poets, writers, historical figures or accused witches. They have one thing in common; they made a mark.  I have tackled subjects such as female genital mutilation in the Gambia (Jaha Dukureh), child marriage (Theresa Kachindamoto), women’s oppression in Iran (Mahsa Amini) and the suffragette movement (Mary Molony). My fused glass portraits are made by painstakingly placing glass frit on the kiln shelf and fusing just enough to begin to melt the glass but not enough that the texture is compromised.
