Art disciplines:

I make a range of functional and decorative tin-glazed earthenware pottery using red clay which I cover with a tin-glaze and brush-paint with oxide mixtures and stains.
My work is mostly wheel-thrown with a few shapes made by using plaster moulds.
I like to be involved in processes of making and refining. I do like my work to be used and trial most pieces at home; this is where the images that display food on bowls and plates come from.
Over the years I have been drawn to brighter colours which the tin-glaze lends itself to and I have explored my brush-work skills to venture into new designs.
