Leadlight of Day

Leadlight of Day With over 40 years in leadlight and stained glass, I’m passionate about both restoring treasured pieces and creating new works.

I love using repurposed glass wherever possible. Commissions and original artworks available. Returning to Leadlighting after approximately 20 years and it is the best thing ever. Custom designs, commissions, restoration work, bespoke art. Please get in contact with me if you have any enquiries. My desire is to repurpose old glass wherever possible.

This terrific group of people gathered at Fosterton Retreat over the weekend to learn to cut pieces of glass and turn them into art. None of them had ever cut glass before and look what they created. It was such a fun weekend and so much more than learning to create stained-glass creations.

To experience this, join us next year at a Stained-Glass Art Retreat. Next one is scheduled for 25-27 June 2027. We are already taking bookings and 4 places have been taken. So don't miss out, get in touch now.

🔥 LAST CHANCE TO JOIN US! 🔥
Our Stained-Glass Art Retreat is THIS WEEKEND, 14–16 August and we still have a few places available!

If you’ve been thinking about learning stained glass, come along and spend a creative weekend at beautiful Fosterton Retreat.

Just look at what our June participants created!

It’s so much more than a workshop. It’s a weekend of learning new skills, creating beautiful things, open fires, great company, new experiences and time to simply enjoy being creative.

You’ll leave with your own handmade stained-glass pieces, new skills and hopefully feeling wonderfully refreshed.

And here’s the important bit…

The next Stained-Glass Art Retreat won’t be until June 2027!
So if you’ve been waiting for the right opportunity, this is it.

The large window is officially underway!

The first section is beginning to bloom, and little by little the rest of the window will follow. Every carefully cut piece of glass brings the design one step closer to life.

Now I need your help...

This piece features kookaburras, crimson rosellas, a tortoise in a pond, a waratah, flannel flowers, ferns and mushrooms, all nestled amongst the Australian bush.

What would you call it? I'd love to hear your suggestions. The perfect name might just come from one of you!

Can you really create several stained glass pieces in just one weekend?

Absolutely!

Time and time again we're amazed by what our retreat participants achieve. With expert guidance, plenty of encouragement and a relaxed, supportive atmosphere, you'll head home with beautiful handmade pieces and a whole new set of skills.

Our next Stained Glass Art Retreat is happening 14–16 August 2026, and there are still a few spots available.

Spend a weekend surrounded by nature, immerse yourself in creativity, meet like-minded people, and discover just how rewarding working with stained glass can be. The photos speak for themselves—but the experience is even better.
