She loves to be creative and wanted to do something that would combine her creativity with her geeky technical side. Sally has always loved glass\, particularly the reflections you get from the sun shining through garden art and after attending a couple of basic glass fusing courses she bought her first kiln in 2019. There are so many things to make\, different techniques to learn\, firing schedules to understand – the possibilities for experimentation are endless. Sally loves teaching workshops\, they are always relaxed and fun and she encourages everyone to come up with their own designs. She particularly enjoys working with people who say they are not artistic or creative because they always surprise themselves by creating something beautiful.
