Linda Banks holds a BA (hons) in Art and English and on the art side she specialised in glass techniques. She works with copper foil, lead and fused glass to create unique, artist-designed pieces in stained glass. She makes light shades, lamp shades, wall shades, mirrors and windows to her own styles, as well as working to commission to create heirloom artworks for birthdays, anniversaries and celebrations.
Completed post graduate study & awarded an MA in glass from Wolverhampton University in 2010.
Currently working with an abundance of recycled glass
I make windows with 'stained' or fused glass, mostly leaded. Ongoing experimentation with fusing and frits, also in setting glass in wood or concrete. My aim is to make colours dance in 3D effect in a room when light is behind them.
Lucy is represented in London by Plateaux Gallery and sells internationally at selected Art Fairs.
Bespoke commissioned projects range from luxury art glass to integrated engraved glass for high-end residential interiors and super yachts.
Since graduating from The University of Sunderland in BA(hons) Glass and Ceramics 2012, Kathryn returned to her hometown Ipswich, Suffolk. Where she has now established her own glass studio and plans to continue developing and creating unique pieces of glass artwork.
It was the contemplation of old stained glass – masterpieces of craftsmanship and spiritual beauty – that stimulated my curiosity and desires to the point of abandoning my old life and embracing a new career. However, it is the contemporary approach to the craft, with the aid of modern technology, methods and processes, that breathes life into new exciting opportunities
