Path and Inspiration
Forty five years ago I had my first experience with pottery. I was smitten but my life took a different path and I only rediscovered my passion just before lockdown in 2020 when I retired and created a little studio in my garden, what a haven it has become. It seemed that all the years spent absorbing art around me had suddenly borne fruit - cave paintings, North African vessels, Greek sculpture, Egyptian painting… Each morning I still wake up with a new idea.
Process and Practice
All my work is hand built - slab, pinch, flat and round coils. I use underglazes and oxides for earthenware and stoneware decorations, and layers of different glazes on stoneware, for now!
