Overview

There are a number of artists who have contributed to this website through their individual selections of 10 fine examples of British stained glass. While all naturally refrained from recommending their own work in the 10 selected, they have been asked to choose a window of their own that they feel reflects their personal work. This is Moira Malcolm’s selection.

Creation windows

Reason for highlighting

I was hugely excited about this project and the designs just fell onto the paper, filled with colour, light, animals and all the joys of nature and creation. I also wanted each window to be unique but work together as a collection. I sourced so many beautiful and rich shades of hand-blown glass and relished every moment of the creative process. It stands as my favourite project to date.
