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 taught I 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:

Kingsbury Barn, St Albans: I recently exhibited with fellow DCPG members at the Kingsbury Barn, Branch Road, St Albans, AL3 4SE.

Cow Byre Art Gallery, Ruislip: Another chance to see my pots. This exhibition will be open 10am to 4pm daily from Sunday 3 through to Saturday 16 November 2024 at the Cow Byre Art Gallery, Manor Farm, Ruislip, HA4 7SU.

Pots recently displayed at the Kingsbury Barn can be seen in Gallery 1 and some of those on display at the Cow Byre can be seen in Gallery 2.
