Penny Carter

Penny Carter is an artist using glass as her medium to create brightly coloured jewellery. Penny enjoys traditional bead making techniques but with a quirky contemporary twist, working glass roda hot directly in the flame building up layers of stransparent jelly colours over opaque pithy colours. Penny adds colour and texture to the liquid glass, with some of the detail containing up to four layers of colour.

Penny's miniature vessels are her most recent collection, exploring bands of colour and texture. Each vessel has an Alice in Wonderland element to them - 'Eat Me, Drink Me'. With a quality of edible fruit like seeds - chilli pepper & pomegranate, kiwi and prickly pear - spikey gooseberry or peppery damson.
