I create handmade individual one-off pieces that are predominately made in stoneware, which are influenced by the decorative and colourful elements of the landscape.
I am currently based in Northamptonshire and my work ranges from collections of vases, bowls, dishes and sculptural vessels.
Methods of construction and forming include slumping the clay into plaster moulds, slip casting,
coil constructing and hand building.
Decorative details include adding tiny flecks of
glass or chunks of leather-hard clay into the surface when the clay is soft – as well as painting
decorative coloured slips onto my own handmade textured printing blocks, which I
then roll onto sheets of clay before using to construct forms.
