Our glass studio is situated just off the beaten track. We are located in splendid rural isolation, surrounded by open green farm land and only a few miles inland of Ballintoy village, on the North Antrim Coast. A short distance, of just two miles away, is Whitepark Bay, a vast stretch of secluded beach which arcs between two rugged rocky headlands and is also a natural conservation area, rich in wild life and wild flowers. Within twenty minutes driving are a plethora of outlying sites, ancient ruins and a world of breath-taking natural beauty. I take daily walks within this landscape, usually at sun up or sun down, to nourish my soul and feed my practice. I bring the experience back into the studio and light my torch. An article in the Guardian described the Antrim Coast area as otherworldly, I couldn’t agree more; add light, fire, glass and creativity and expect to have a transformative experience.
