About Elizabeth

Iā€™m a fused glass artist based on the Isle of Skye with a background in science, technology and community development.

My recent work incorporates mark-making and painting techniques to create unique fusible paper inclusions which are encapsulated within my fused glass art.

I take inspiration from my surroundings and life in the Scottish islands. Exploring topics such as rewilding, depopulation and sustainability.
