She has a contemporary take on mosaic, while also appreciating the classical rules – she particularly enjoys pushing the boundaries of the Roman technique opus sectile (using larger pieces of material to produce a pattern) and she has recently begun to create and include glass-fused pieces into her work to enhance this. Her work is inspired by art nouveau, music and nature. Rhona is also the founder of Studio 164 Falkirk and the founding editor of international magazine Mosaic & Glass. She volunteers at her son’s school, introducing him and his classmates to mosaic and glass. Rhona has taught regularly at the Wider Access to School Project in Denny – a charity providing subsidised higher education to adult learners in the local community – and the Central Scotland School of Craft in Dunblane for several years. She now teaches mainly at Studio 164 Falkirk. Her work is available to buy at Made in Stirling. Originally from Dublin, Rhona has lived in Scotland for over 30 years. Materials, tea/coffee, snacks and your own glass-fused creations. Read more details
