Interestingly, and perhaps uniquely, some of Dave\u2019s glass designs show his engineering influence mixed with his artistic ideas. &nbsp;This is further enhanced by his use of colour and textures and by utilising light to generate pieces that are only possible by using glass.<\/p>\n<p>Dave has trained in fused glass in Bath and Falmouth.
