How clay has always been a part of my life…

From the first time I began to work with clay at Filton Technology College, in Bristol, England, at a Saturday morning children’s workshop, I was hooked. I recall the wonderful facilities that we were let loose to work on; spray booths and wheels - glorious!

My continued journey with clay as a creative material has led me to a place in my life where I’m able to share my inspiration, expression and values through clay, for your enjoyment. I draw influences from Japanese ceramic culture and continue to study this rich legacy. I’ve spent the years working in theatre costume; in hospitals; in education and I’m now working  full-time as a potter and sculptor.

My work is wheel-thrown; occasionally hand-built and I use a variety of clays, dependent on the piece. I’m currently deepening my glazing and firing knowledge through a range of kiln firings: the wonderful soda firings with Sabine Nemet, as well as the tunnel wood-fired kiln, courtesy of Nic Collins.
