Ellie uses the traditional method of leaded stained glass to create contemporary and
stunning art for outdoor spaces. She works in collaboration with an artist/blacksmith friend
and her local forge who make the bespoke steel frames for her.
She hand crafts her sculptures using traditional techniques, incorporating exquisite textured
and beautiful coloured glass, giving a quality of depth and life as the weather, the seasons
and the light change.
Ellie is inspired by nature and the natural shapes and forms found within the botanical
world. She loves the contradiction of working with brittle material like glass, to create soft,
curvaceous natural forms. Every step in the creative process brings Ellie a sense of joy and
positive well-being.
Her art draws in the observer, instilling a sense of calm contemplation as the sculptures
nestle in harmony with nature.
Ellie has successfully exhibited her work in many prestigious gardens throughout Sussex
including Borde Hill Gardens, One Garden, The Sussex Prairie Gardens and as a member of
the Surrey Sculpture Society, will be in some exciting locations for the first time in 2023.
