Isabel work's with both glass and clay and create kiln fired sculptural forms inspired by a variety of sources i.e. the undulating hills and landscape that she recalls from her childhood in Scotland, from walking in the Peak district and latterly the views from her studio in Monmouth. She also refers to her scientific background and the occasional need for geometric forms creeps into her designs, but mostly from life drawing and the inspiration to recreate the wonderful curves of the female form and solid form of the male in glass. Isabel loves working with glass as there are so many colours to work with and more intense in glass than any other material. Glass is also a tactile material and the shapes formed by slumping on bespoke incised clay moulds can create very unusual and pleasing texture and designs. She still has a feeling of both excitement and trepidation when she opens the kiln to reveal the finished slumped piece.
