Artist Annette Sheppard

Throughout my adult life I have explored many different creative mediums.

My current path began more than a decade ago when I learned stained glass as a part time student. I soon became intrigued with the idea of working with heat techniques and went on to learn glass fusing and other kiln processes. I now often incorporate fused glass into functional pieces.

During my first year of full time study at Edinburgh’s Telford College, I became completely absorbed with creative metalwork and I received an award for ‘The Most innovative Design’. Over the two years that followed while still studying at E.T.C., I was invited to exhibit work with established galleries many of which I now work with on a regular basis.
