My ceramics are all based on natural forms, using plants, seed pods, shells, fungus, pebbles etc as my inspiration.

I enjoy the process involved in traditional making methods, working slowly with coils or slabs of clay. Each piece is built up over a period of time and then the shape is refined with a selection of finishing and incising tools.

I use a limited palette and most of my work is fired to stoneware featuring coloured slips, oxides and glazes as decoration. Some of the work is fired to a lower temperature and then burnished before smoke firing. My aim is to echo the natural beauty of nature but with a personal twist.

My work has been sold in private galleries throughout the UK and exhibited at many venues. I graduated from the UCLAN in 1995 and since then have worked as a ceramicist and arts tutor.
