In her workshop in Deerness, Nonnie produces a large and eclectic range of fused glass art using her surroundings for inspiration. Largely self-taught in the processes of cutting the glass shapes, creating an image and then firing the glass in a kiln, Nonnie has built up a successfull following for her art pieces locally and further afield. Works depicting Highland cows, puffins, meadow flowers and thistles have proved popular with those wanting a wee reminder of the beauty of Scotland.

Workshops are available for anyone who would like to create their own fused glass masterpieces. Further details are on the website.

Nonnie is in her shed/workshop/gallery/shop most days. The kettle is always on and visitors are welcome to pop in if they are looking for an original gift or Orkney souvenier. But it's best to check by phone or message first, as on a fine sunny Orkney day, a dog walk or a horse ride might take priority over making glass.

Nonnie's original glass work is available in Kirkwall from, Starlings, Orkney Tweed and Ortak.
