My name is Annelyse Taylor. I am French, married to a Scottish man and we live in Aberdeen, Scotland with our two children.
I discovered lampworking in 2005 and became very quickly addicted to this mesmerising occupation.
I started learning on a hothead torch but equiped myself with an oxy-propane setup and a kiln within months. I have learnt from books and videos but I have also taken classes with two great lampworking artists : Diana East (March 2006), Kimberly Jo Affleck (June 2007) and Leah Fairbanks (June 2008).
I am inspired by everything around me. I love improvisation, practice and play, and my greatest motivation is the desire to try something new, sometimes to great effect and sometimes not (but I always learn something from my experimentations).
