Artist's Statement

I make functional slipware, a range of platters, jugs, bowls etc. - oven to table ware in small series all made to serve.

I also accept commissions to make commemorative pieces for weddings, christenings etc.  

There is a strong emphasis on decoration in my work and am continuing to explore repeat patterns using paper resist.

Work usually available from:

Gallery Maison  du Gisant –  Rue du l’horloge, 22100 Dinan, France

My Workshop

Technical Information

I use Earthenware (clay de Provence/valentines mix). The work is thrown and altered, decorated with layers of coloured slips which are dipped, sponged and slip trailed.

The pieces are raw-glazed. 

The work is fired in a gas kiln 1100°c
