Suzanne Dekker, glass artist Suzanne found her niche after taking part in a taster day at York College, where she had the opportunity to make some leaded glass. Three years of night classes followed and then she started her degree course. In 2008 she won the student category of the Warm Glass Prize, a national competition for glass artists. In 2010 she graduated with first class honours. Her work is inspired by nature, with a strong interest in the work of British Land Artists. Reuse of waste glass is something that she is passionate about and she uses a wide range of techniques in her work,including copper foiling, leading, painting, fusing,slumping, casting and lamp working to achieve the desired outcome.
