Maker's bio

Penny Carter’s workshop is in Devon, between the river Yealm Estuary and the sea. The reflections of opaque painted boats on the transparent aqua blue estuary water and the massive watery skies are very present in her work. “Glass carries and reflects colour so well. By overlaying deep opaque and intensely translucent coloured glass I can paint with hot glass creating my personal colour palette.” Penny has been making glass for 30 years and is a qualified tutor.
