I am Jo Cross and I have successfuly been making fused glass jewellery for several years now. I have also encorporated Sterling Silver or Precious Metal Clay (PMC) into some of my jewellery pieces. I love the fact that you can cut several different pieces of glass, layer them up & fuse them together, not knowing what the results will be until you open the kiln door. Some types of glass can change colour as a chemical process during fusing which is always exciting.
I sell my jewellery mainly through Vitreus Art Studio & Workshop at Bell Plantation in Towcester. In past years I have exhibited and demonstrated my work at Vitreus Art during the South Northants Art Trail. This year I will be demonstrating wire wrapping techniques during NOS at Vitreus Art, and also offering taster sessions. The demonstrations are the basis of my workshops that I teach at the studio.
