For more than two decades, I’ve been creating original stained-glass mosaics from my studio in Winchester, Ontario. What began as a quiet curiosity in 2003 quickly became a lifelong passion, and I’ve never looked back. After a 23-year career in the financial field, I made the life-changing decision to follow my creative instincts — a choice that shaped my entire path as an artist.

Each mosaic I create is entirely hand-cut and composed piece by piece. I work freehand, without templates or patterns, allowing the artwork to evolve naturally as the glass takes shape. Over the years, I’ve developed a distinctive mosaic style recognized for its detail, flow, and warmth, often framed on natural live-edge wood to bring out the organic beauty of the piece.

My work ranges from wildlife and pets to landscapes, canoes, birds, florals, and custom commissions. Whether I’m creating a tiny 6x6 or a large statement piece, my goal is always the same — to capture personality, movement, and emotion through stained glass.

In addition to creating, I’ve been teaching stained glass mosaic techniques for over 20 years, sharing what I’ve learned with artists and students across Canada and beyond. I also offer mosaic kits, tools, and supplies for those who want to explore the medium themselves.

Thank you for visiting my shop and supporting original handmade art. Each piece is created with care, intention, and over two decades of experience — and I’m always honoured when my work finds its forever home.
