I trained at the University of the West of England, Bristol gaining a BA(Hons.)

degree in ceramics, 1993. Since leaving college my work has been

focused on functional, thrown, slip decorated tableware.

I particularly enjoy the figurative properties of jugs and teapots. I throw in

sections and rejoin at an angle to enhance their posture. So creating relaxed

fat bellied jugs and rather perky teapots, all with a touch of humour.

Decoration comprises of coloured slips being poured freely over the surface

and finally glazed with a rich blue earthenware glaze which enhances the

tonal range of the slips beneath.
