Capability Brown
To celebrate the tercentenary of the birth of Capability Brown, who is
buried in Fenstanton Church,
the children of Fenstanton and Hilton Primary School were involved in
designing a stained-glass window for the church centre.
The children visited Ely Stained Glass Museum and each one made a piece
of fused glass under my guidance to create a border. The children then
designed images for the central stained glass panel.

I was involved from the beginning and
was responsible for the design,
interpretation and execution of the window.
This project was funded by the Heritage Lottery Fund and sponsored by
the Cambridgeshire Gardener's Trust and the National Association of
Decorative and Fine Arts Societies.

After a visit to the Stained Glass Museum, the children made a design

their school.

interpreted their lovely
design using traditional glass painting, assembled using lead and
copper foil techniques.

This window is an unfinished project.
The window was to be interpreted in a spiritual way using
pieces of fused coloured glass made at the Stained Glass Museum by all
of the children in the school.
The existing window is a large Gothic
shape into which we have inserted only the central panel.
It was made
by gluing the fused glass onto toughened glass panels in front of the
existing window.

Cambourne Village College
A joint project between Cambourne
Village College and the Stained Glass Museum 2013/2014. This
collaborative project involved all 144 new year 7 pupils. All the
pupils visited the Stained Glass Museum and then I worked with the
children in school to produce the strips of fused glass. The art
teacher Mark Yeates designed and installed the glass "sails".

Leverington Primary Academy Cambs
This art room window was made with
pieces of fused glass made in the Stained Glass Museum by the year 6
children.
The window was to be hung in a designated art area in Leverington
Primary School in Norfolk.
The existing school windows were modern plastic double-glazed, and so
we designed a method of hanging the glass in strips from a pole at the
top.
The window was a colourful interpretation of rainbow colours.
