Welcome to my website 

Here I am in my studio throwing a small mug. Each piece is unique, handmade on a potter’s wheel, painted and glazed with considerable care and fired to 1,265C. The high temperature makes them strong, oven and dishwasher safe.

These pots celebrate the serving and sharing of food. Their decoration reflects my relationship with the natural world, especially the leaves, flowers and insects to be found in our small London garden.

I studied History of Art at the Courtauld Institute and then I taught a history of ceramics course at Croydon College of Art and Design, and it was there that I discovered my own style. Since then I have done extensive research into slips, liquid coloured clays, which can still be seen even under opaque high temperature glazes.

Forthcoming exhibitions:

During 2025, I exhibited my pottery at markets across seven locations: Knowl Hill, Berks (3-5 May), St Albans (12-14 Sept), Teddington (26 Oct), West Drayton (16 Nov), Ickenham (5 Dec), Harmondsworth (7 Dec) and Northwood (13 Dec). During 2026, I would expect to be participating at the same locations but on slightly different dates, and hopefully with some additional events.

In Gallery 1 you can see some of the pots, which I exhibited in the three Christmas markets: the Ickenham Village Hall, Harmondsworth Great Barn and Michael Sobell House. There is also a selection of my blue pots in Gallery 2.
