The old stone barn to the rear of the New Inn pub in Middleton Cheney is the perfect space to host an Artweeks exhibition. This beautiful barn lends itself perfectly to my work and that of my fellow artists.
You can grab a drink and bring it over to the exhibition. Select food from the Artweeks themed menu or grab a coffee and cake. Everyone is welcome including your four legged friend. There is lots of free parking.
I will be exhibiting with:-
Melanie Charles - Animal painting
Sharon Highway - Handmade Journals
Lis Mann - Mixed media
Anya Simmons - Painting.
Over the last 12 months I have continued to develop my work in both shape, topic and form. I love all natural things and continue to use inspiration from my garden and the beautiful woods that form Edgehill and that I can see from my studio window. One ‘light bulb’ moment came when walking on Edgehill. I wanted to capture the natural forms by using organic materials. So with the use of bark, twigs and stones I have incorporated more texture into my work, which you will be able to see for yourself at this year's Oxfordshire Artweeks Exhibiton at Middleton Cheney.
On the flip side to that I love colour and you can’t beat fiery red and bold copper that transpires from the heat of the kiln. This amazing combination can be seen in my emerging buds, wave dishes, platters and beakers.
I have been a professional potter for over 18 years and the ‘bug’ has never left me. I am a designer maker in clay and am lucky enough to have my studio in my garden, where visitors are always welcome. (just contact me first to make sure I am in or book your visit through the website) I am a regular speaker to art groups, WI’s and probus.
I love to sharing my passion with those who would like to ‘have a ago’. I offer 1/2 day and whole day workshops for up to 2 persons in my garden studio. So whether you are an experience potter or someone who has never had 'a go' but it is on the wish list, my aim is to help. You can book directly through the website or by contact me you can even by a gift card towards the experience. So what are you waiting for!!
I have enjoyed completing commissions for customers so if you are looking for something that is personalised and individual please contact me to to discuss your requirements.
Over the last 18 years work has been exhibited at the Ashmolean Museum, Oxford, Compton Verney, Shipston on Stour, Chipping Campden, and Lower Slaughter. I am a regular exhibitor at Oxfordshire Art weeks as well as Warwickshire Open Studio's as well as pieces going to private collections around the world.
