I enjoy working to commission, collaborating with a client to create a gloriously individual piece of glass, and some of my favourite pieces have sprung from this process.
If you have never considered commissioning an artwork before - it's easier than you think. Why settle for a ready-made item, when you yourself could be part of the creative process?
Here are some examples of commissions I have worked on over the years.
