I consider myself in the first degree to be a thrower; using the potter's wheel to form the clay into interesting objects. I am still fascinated by the ease and fluidity in which I can create pieces of work. Just to sit down at a wheel without knowing what I am going to throw is a pleasure in itself. Before my introduction to throwing I produced mostly slip cast work and I like to include this within my thrown pieces as I still enjoy the precision that it requires.

I am currently in the Ceramics studio at New Brewery Arts in Cirencester where I am the resident ceramicist. Please pop in and see me if you are in the area. I accept commissions and teach classes and workshops for all ages and abilities.
