I am both a potter of functional ware, and of hand built sculptural forms.
Many of my pieces take on a whimsical nature by the exaggeration of a certain feature. I enjoy the tactile nature of clay and am inspired by the environment and its abundant palette of texture, colour and shape. I use a variety of clays and I’m particularly fond of the warm speckled earthy colours. I love exploiting the texture in clay – either by highlighting patterns using oxide or placing texture over texture and glaze on glaze – thus allowing the piece to form its own unique pattern.
