Stained Glass

Elaine has worked with glass for more than 16 years.  Her background includes both craft and design, having studied for five years at the National Art School, East Sydney, majoring in fashion design.

Her life as an artist has many facets, a career in advertising, design and studies in pottery, drawing, painting, and fashion and jewellery design.  She joined the NSCG in 1996.


Elaine’s kaleidoscopes explode with colour and are great fun to design.  Some of her three dimensional pieces feature specimens of our wonderful native flora.  Her favourite, the Flannel Flower, varies in form as if still in a state of evolution – captured in glass.

Elaine enjoys challenging the medium.  The colours and vibrancy of glass offer great possibilities – fusing colour to create new colours and textures, acid etching, painting and devising new ways to achieve her aims.  The challenge is exciting and endless.
