Hello, I am Sam Burke. Welcome to my website at Sam Burke Art.
I handcraft contemporary glass art, inspired by my love of the natural world. I love to create pieces that evoke fond memories of adventures to favourite places. The magic happens, for me, when light passes through a finished piece: the colours & textures in the glass 'come alive' & create wonderful patterns on the surrounding surfaces.
I use special glass, & other materials, to create my designs which I melt & shape in my kiln, in my studio in Stony Stratford, Buckinghamshire. Every piece has been in the kiln at least twice to get the desired effect & each kiln firing lasts approximately 24 hours.
Every piece is unique - from statement pieces to smaller pieces which make wonderful gifts for your loved ones.
I do hope that you share my love of glass & join me on my creative journey.
