Ellie designs and creates beautiful, contemporary stained glass sculptures for outside spaces. Her bold panels are inspired by her love of nature and mostly have botanical themes. They are set in bespoke steel frames and are fully weatherproof. Ellie loves the way the light plays with the colour glass.
She uses traditional techniques to handcraft her sculptures incorporating exquisite textured and coloured glass, giving a quality of depth and life as the weather and seasons change. Her art draws in the observer, instilling a sense of calm contemplation as the sculptures nestle in harmony with nature.
Ellie loves the contradiction of working with brittle material like glass, to create soft, curvaceous natural forms.
Having obtained a BA Hons Visual Arts degree, she went on to gain her teaching qualification. Ellie has created art throughout her life and has been an avid crafter, she combines this with her teaching career.
