REBECCA MANSBRIDGE - GLASS ARTIST

In 2004 Rebecca attended Rosella Chester’s glass workshop in Colchester, Essex. She quickly developed a love for fused glass and in 2009 decided to start selling her glass. Since then her techniques and the quality of her glass have developed considerably - there is nothing quite like creating and experimenting to hone your skills and teach you how different glasses fuse and different inclusions react.

Rebecca loves colour and her glass clearly reflects this. Almost all of the pieces she makes delight in colour and are designed to have light passing through them. Originally all her work was abstract, but in 2010 she began exploring how to represent nature in glass, in particular flowers and wildlife. Rebecca likes to challenge herself to try new subjects and techniques and now explores how to create landscape scenes using just glass.
