Ceramics
I am a self-taught ceramicist and multi-media
maker/designer and painter. I have a BA (Hons) in English
Literature.

years. During this time, I have worked with watercolour,
pastels, acrylics, fabric, paper, and other mixed media, but
clay has always had a special place.

I make one-off, hand-built ceramics by coiling, pinching,
pressing or using slabs mainly from stoneware clays and
finish them with metal oxides.

I live and work in Bristol, and I am a member of the
Clifton
Arts Club, and Bristol Potters.  

Texture and earthy, muted tones in eroded surfaces,
natural objects, shells, stones, leaves, and bones fascinate
me. I am not so much interested in functionality: my work is
an exploration of shape and texture.
