Current work

In the last few years I have designed and made many doors, windows, skylights and sculptures for private houses in Scotland, England, Ireland, USA, New Zealand and Australia.
Commercial installations include 4 panels at Bar Habana, Edinburgh ; a Famous Grouse window in Glenturret Distillery, Crieff ; 3 compound windows in Balerno Parish Church ; a glass and metal installation at the newly refurbished Inverkeithing Civic Centre.
I am continuing to experiment with glass and its reaction to different techniques.
