Netley Glass Art
Mary Nottingham
Glass Artist
Having lived and worked in Malia, Cyprus for a number of years, I gave up my gorgeous studio in the village square and moved back to the UK. After a long search we found a small house with a very large workshop in Hampshire and I am now happily set up in a very different but equally gorgeous studio in Netley Abbey.
When I was working in Malia, the name 'Malia Glass' and the website that went with it was an obvious choice but I have found that it is now causing some confusion and I have therefore changed my name to 'Netley Glass Art' in an attempt to explain where I am and what I do.
Glass is hugely versatile. As an artist I have spent 20 years using glass to produce mosaic mirrors, table tops and pictures as well as handmade warm glass pictures, panels, bowls and jewellery. In addition I have developed traditional skills in tiffany and leaded glass work. I have incorporate traditional and modern techniques and design into my art. Each piece is handcrafted using the colour and texture of glass to produce art from glass.
