Helen Stephen - Glass

Helen Stephen is working with fused glass. She produces jewellery, mirrors and pictures. Her wonderful glass pictures are made from layering the different coloured glass and 'paint' with glass frit (very small glass pieces) before fusing the picture. This technique lends itself to the creation of the beautiful Scottish landscape caught in Helen's glass pictures.

Robin Key of Clavis Jewellery

Exciting news today that one of Robin's specially commissioned brooches will be appearing in this new film release. This came about after an encounter with the client at last years NEOS. 
He says:
'Last year during NEOS I was at the Waldorf when a gentleman called Richard Burke came to my stand and asked me if I could make a special brooch for a film that he had written and was going to produce in the NE. Long story short. The film was made and the trailer is now out. I am so proud to have played a little part of this amazing piece of art.'
