Stained glass nature artworks from the heart of East Yorkshire

Welcome to Glass Lore!

I’m Emma and I adore working in stained glass. The range of colours, the shine, and the ways it changes with the light makes every piece of stained glass feel special. Having worked in a wide range of materials I have finally found the medium that allows my ideas to flow.

Glass is perfect to describe the magical, delicate qualities of the natural world I have always been fascinated by. I often make work about the flora and fauna I have seen and photographed on my travels and my walks in the Yorkshire countryside.

I make all Glass Lore pieces in my little home studio and am often supervised by Fen the cockapoo.

Emma Fraser - currently an art teacher at the oldest state school in the country, I stepped back as head of department to follow a slower pace of life and started stained glass in January 2024, and Glass Lore a few months later. I have a BA in Fine Art: Painting and Drawing from Huddersfield University, have exhibited work internationally, as well as creating exhibition opportunities for my students. I returned to art after completing my first BA in Ancient History from Durham University. I also have a PGCE in Secondary Art, Craft, and Design and think that the craft bit is extremely important!
