How would you describe the work you do and why?: 

I make functional ceramics, such as mugs, large jugs, platters and serving dishes. I like to make things that can have a use but also look beautiful.

For you what does being an artist mean?: 

Being an artist brings me a sense of joy and purpose. I feel so fulfilled creating something out of what is essentially mud, knowing it will be used and treasured for many years.

Describe what you call yourself/your practice?: 

I am a Studio Potter

Your practice & activities include e.g workshops, teaching: 

I do not currently teach or run workshops.

CV & Education, relevant & leading to your artistic practice: 

I have no formal ceramics qualification. I first learnt the basics when studying at Herefordshire College of Art and Design in my late teens.
I later took evening classes in Abergavenny and The Forest of Dean learning more about processes and refining my techniques.
Later on I joined Clay Hill Potters in The Forest of Dean where I really learned how to throw, make glazes and it was there my passion for pottery took over.

Exhibitions in the last 3 years: 

Feast at The Sanctuary Gallery, Newnham, March 2025.

Your gallery outlets/stockists: 

Made in Ross, Ross on Wye.
Oil & Oak, Hay on Wye.
