Inspiration

I throw and hand-build simple forms with earthy red earthenware clay and pour contrasting smooth white slip inside. I fire the clay high just before it is vitrified and use subtle glazes which change colour on edges and where they pool. Intricate hand drawn digitally printed transfers are fired in to the glazed surfaces and patterned decals are playfully used to create my range of ceramics. My work is about contrasts and balance; a combination of raw and refined finishes traditional and industrial processes and creating unique handmade pieces for everyday use.
