When someone buys one of my pots, they are also acquiring
a painting. It’s a continual process of exploration and discovery, which is
why I don’t make large numbers with a similar design. Each piece is hand
painted, so is individual in its own right. In this recent phase I am
focusing on the human form. Some of the larger pieces are accompanied by
poetry describing the passions, lusts, furies and joys inspired by human
love.
Painters who have been influential are
Pablo Picasso, Ivon Hitchens, Patrick Heron, Matisse and Roger Hilton.
