I've been creating with clay for around eighteen years now. First exploring with sculpture of life modelling and then onto studio ceramics which I studied at college at home in England.

Since moving to Canada eight years ago, I sucessfully created a pottery business, supplying my work to stores, working on commissions, going to annual shows and teaching adult and kids classes.

Having had pieces of my work acknowledged by awards at many juried shows, only goes on to inspire me to push the boundaries, think outside the box and inspire further creativity. It is a total joy to pass on my knowledge and share my love for this medum with others.

Whether hand built or thrown on the potters wheel, each piece you create will be one to treasure.
