I was awarded the Finn Lynggaard Award in 2016 and used the money to travel to Pilchuck to take a course with Sally McCubbin. The course combined using new technology and systems with traditional hot glass processes. Whilst I tried to master the basics of 3D printing with Tinkercad I also learnt to creat vector files to utalise a vinyl cutter for sandblasting. It was a period of experimentation rather than creating final pieces.
