My aim is to make beautiful, atmospheric pots with visual and tactile appeal, to be appreciated as decorative objects and also enjoyed in use.
I work mainly on the wheel, making tableware and other primarily functional vessels which couple gently curving forms with a rich palette of glazes.
I
find developing glazes endlessly fascinating, and I am intrigued by how they interact with each other and the clay to create infinitely variable visual
effects which often belie their actual textures.
In
particular, drinking vessels afford the opportunity for the user to engage with
the visual and tactile properties of a piece far more closely than would be
usual for any other art form.
