He founded Shakspeare Glass in Taunton over a quarter of a century ago, his distinctive pieces becoming instantly recognisable and highly collectable. He takes the inspiration for his pieces from the world around him; landscapes, the coast, nature’s colours, flora and fauna.. the vibrant fluidity of it all captured in his glass.
