Current Work

I am interested in designing new products for interiors; in particular I enjoy developing innovative ideas for the modem lifestyle that fulfil a practical function as well as being decorative. My designs are inspired by organic shapes and are either thrown, handbuilt or sli pcast in porcelain.

I divide my time between my studio and teaching pottery in Adult Education
My work is available directly from me at the studio and during the twice-yearly Open Studios events in June and November

Work generally available from:
Work can be purchased directly from me at the studio, by appointment only.

Other Information: Teaching in Adult Education at Chiswick community Education and Hounslow community Education (Feltham Community College)

Technical Information

Porcelain clay, electric kiln, high temperature glazes.
