Conversations with Magic Stones - The Collectors Axes - Orkney

My background is in hot glass making, running a studio in Edinburgh during the 1980’s. Among my first artistic endeavours during my schooling was printmaking.

I currently run Gallery TEN in Edinburgh’s West End, which specialises in contemporary and modern art, including a very wide selection of original print works spanning the 1950s, 1960s, and 1970s, which alongside other works including glass, mixed media and photography is available from my new online shop.

Print


During the 2000s I developed my interests in print, often as an adjunct and to partner with my glass work.
