Stained Glassic

Jamal is a freelance artist and stained glass maker. He learnt his craft whilst working at John Hardman Studio (established in 1838), where he designed, restored and conserved stained glass windows for several historical buildings, modern architecture, private companies, and domestic clients. At Hardman, he explored Pugin's theory and Hardman's practice of gothic revival stained glass.

Through stained glass restoration, Jamal has mastered multiple glass painting styles and techniques used in medieval, arts and crafts, pre-raphaelites and gothic revival stained glass. With more than 20 years' arts practice, he has established himself as a freelance artist and educator. He is passionate about teaching his skills to others and produces hand-painted stained glass for a variety of global clients from his own little studio in Birmingham.

Jamal has a Master of Fine Arts in Arts Practice and Education from Birmingham City University, and a Master of Fine Arts in illustration/Graphic Design from the College of Art and Design, Lahore.
