Exhibition information

I work with stoneware clay and use throwing and coiling to make functional ware: bowls and vases. Over the last year I have begun to use slabbing to make larger pieces.

Artist information

I have always liked clay, played with it as a child and learned the basics of pottery at adult education classes. When I retired and had more time, I was fortunate to join the potters’ collective at the Old Forge Pottery in Eynsham.

My inspiration comes from exploring the work of professional, contemporary potters, live and in books and magazines. I enjoy going to galleries and studios and wherever I can try to learn from their example.
