I, finally, received my copy of Marmalade. I’ve got a page to myself in this first-ever edition of the now annual publication by JamFactory.

Herringbone Bottles
I’ve added new images of herringbone inspired bottles as well as some more plaid inspired ones under Tessuti.
BeeBop
This recent creation is an extravagant key holder. Beebop is equipped with two standard issue robot claws for holding your most used key rings while his entire body is actually a vessel that can store the rest.
Making Of JamFactory’s KINK Oil Bottle
Here’s a video showing how we make one of the glass studio’s products. As you can see, we work on a five-person team in a production line fashion, breaking down the process to increase efficiency as well as to allow for more focused training on each step.
Aviary Series and Tessuti
I’ve just added some images of new exhibition work! There will be more to come soon but for the moment, check out the Aviary Series which features some hot-sculpted birds and flora hot-joined into clear glass forms. Also, a series of patterned bottles I’ve been working on called “Tessuti.”
Glass Underwear
Due to popular demand, I have resolved the glass underwear into a more-streamlined, production item. Following the most recent JamFactory product review, “Briefs” will soon be available in the JamFactory shops.
Work Available in ACT!
I’ve recently sent off a bunch of work to the Canberra Glass Works. So if you’re in the area, head on over to check out their shop and some live glassblowing!
New Images
I’ve updated the site with some new photography. Check out the variation on my Aerie Series that may be the beginning of an exhibition series including specific bird species. I’ve also added a bottle and cup set to the Niche Series and some more glass panties. There will be more variations on the underwear to come!
Cane Workshop
Last week, Tom Rowney visited from Canberra to teach a week-long workshop with a focus on cane tumblers. It was a bit of a break from the regular routine. Here are some amateur photos of a few of the cups that I made. I’m getting some ideas for some bigger projects using similar techniques so keep checking in for that.
Get It While It’s Hot
I just put the finishing touches on a bunch of Aerie bowls, vases and jugs and delivered them to the JamFactory Morphett street shop. Some of it will also be going to the Rundle mall shop. So come on in to check it out and take some home!
