I trained originally as a graphic designer, and after a career working very deliberately and seeking perfection, I now find myself returning to my first love pottery, and the opportunity to enjoy imperfection, serendipity and generally going wherever the materials take me. This means each pot is as individual as the next.

I work mostly in terracotta, building by hand and at the wheel from my Suffolk workshop. The ceramics I make seem to be as much a canvas for bold decoration as they are functional objects in themselves, and are often covered with brush strokes, maker’s marks and raw mistakes that seem to tell the story of how the pot was made.   

I particularly enjoy exploring the English slipware tradition, and would love to work even more closely with nature on whatever seems to make sense and bring joy.
