Path and Inspiration
A happy accident brought me to clay. I never thought of myself as an artist. Yet one day I found my creative self when I sat at a potter's wheel.Like many who come to ceramics I started hand building with clay. But the slow process of assembling pots by layering ceramic coils or hollowing out balls of clay by pinching or even rolling out sheets of clay to create 3D forms was not for me. I found my calling at the wheel. I fell under the spell of this magical partnership - a potter & their wheelProcess and Practice
In my work, I play with different forms, with an emphasis on the functional. I am fascinated by clay texture and so I experiment with different clays and clay-glaze combination.I am influenced by simplicity and by natural colours. If there is one ceramic tradition that I admire the most it has to be that of Japan. But I am mostly charting my own path, never knowing where inspiration might come from...
