Chilli Glass (Jane Percival)
Kiln formed fused glass
“I am a Leeds-born, now Otley-based fused glass artist. I have worked for over 35 years with glass, mastering different techniques including Tiffany copper foil and traditional leading. For more than a decade I’ve been exploring the process of kiln-formed fused glass with a special interest in the chemical reactions that take place at high temperatures. I take my inspiration from the natural environment, including seascapes, landscapes, and geological structures, to create pictures, freestanding glass forms, decorative pieces, and jewellery. To offset the environmental impact of my work, I have installed solar panels, use repurposed wood, and source driftwood.”

Delusional Doodles (Amy Paver)
Watercolour / acrylic painting / air-dry clay sculpture
“I am a queer, disabled, female, self-taught artist from Pontefract, West Yorkshire. I have been running an art business called ‘Delusional Doodles’ for about two years now. This has led to displaying my work all over Yorkshire at markets and also displaying my artwork in shops as a range of products. My work is all very personal to me and it is based around how I view life, personal experiences like my worsening physical and mental health, and there are strong influences from pop culture, music, and nature.”
