Jan Singleton
My name is Jan Singleton. I am a glass artist and designer and, in partnership with my husband Richard, I own and run Pandy Mill Gallery. In my studio, housed here in Pandy Mill Gallery, I make glass panels for walls, doors and windows, fused glass plates and bowls for both display and use, and larger scale architectural pieces that form an integral part of a building or garden. I have been studying art in one form or another since 1974 - a love of art, once it is in you, never leaves you. After 4 years study I gained a B.A. Hons. Degree in Graphic Design from Manchester School of Art in England. When I moved to the
Netherlands in 1985, I had the opportunity to study glass design under the
excellent technical leadership of Joost Wijnberg ( http://www.kijkglas.nl/
) . Under his wing, I soon learned that this was an area that I really wanted to
specialize in. During the 1990’s as my skills developed, I was able to
undertake commissions and start up in business on my own, using Tiffany technique, but I was also able to
explore the world of glass fusion when I bought my own large kiln. I have completed many commissions over the last 15 years, both private and public buildings. Moving back to the UK in 2005, I now feel I have mastered a wide range of technical skills and this, coupled with my flair for glass design, allow me to produce works of art in glass that combine both inherent beauty in their own right as well as elegance in their technical solution of an interior or exterior design requirement.
