Richard Paton in his stained-glass studio

Richard Paton is a London-based stained-glass artist, maker and specialist fabricator with around four decades of experience in the art world. He established Rainbow Glass Studios based in north London in 2001.

His practice combines the practical craft of architectural stained glass with drawing, painting, structure and an ongoing interest in light and colour. Through Rainbow Glass Studios, he has spent decades making commissioned work and working with the specialist processes needed to take a stained-glass project from an initial idea to installation.

This site brings together selected commissions, collaborations and the processes behind them. For a more comprehensive portfolio of stained glass work visit rainbowglassstudios.co.uk. To view some of Richard's sculptures go to richardpaton.com.
