It's the journey of a daily working relationship with gravity, slow moving fluid, colour, form, symmetry, and an evolution of intuitive synchronisation between hands, breath, balance, timing and heating.
Years of repetition, observation and failure have brought me to this point in time with my glass practice, and I continue to stive for individuality, understanding and mastery of the medium."
Over the years Alan has developed an impressive range of functional and artistic glassware -
wearable glass, glass pendants, wine glasses, beads, brooches, hairpins, teapots, sculpture, perfume bottles, spinning tops, glass toys, guitar slides, marbles, orbs, rings, buttons and more.
Alan does glass commissions, repairs of borosilicate glassware and makes specialised glassware for scientific and specialised applications.
