Artists Statement

It is difficult to define my work although I focus primarily on decoration. I am still searching for the 'Holy Grail' of ceramics. The 'Perfect' pot that never seems to come out of the kiln, but that aspiration drives me forward to do new work.

It is the journey that keeps me going!

Current Work and Availability

White earthenware, tubeline decorated and lustre ware. Tubelining is a raised form of slip outline thast can lend itself to many creative possibilities from freely drawn naturalistic designs to an arresting new range of contemporary facepots.
