I am a ceramic artist and pottery teacher based in St Albans. I am passionate about clay: I enjoy its feel in my hands as I work – shaping the firm and the soft. My ceramic sculptures play with bold forms and geological processes, through a mix of handbuilding and throwing, blending clays and colours. My functional work echoes my sculptural creations. I enjoy teaching – and run a variety of ad hoc sessions for adults, teens, tweens and children – including private throwing sessions for adults, pairs and small family groups, birthday parties, school arts week activities, DofE skills, after school clubs and holiday pottery workshops. I also offer a firing service for experienced local potters.
