I am a ceramic artist based in a small village on the Hampshire / Dorset border, on the edge of the New Forest National Park in the UK.

I make one of a kind sculptures and other items from Stoneware clay which are decorated using oxides and glazes to add a pop of colour.  Each piece is created using either slab building techniques or thrown on a pottery wheel. Stoneware clay vitrifies during firings at high temperatures, making the pieces suitable for outdoor as well as indoor placements.

I have an over active imagination; which is hugely influenced by folklore, mythology and the books I read as a child containing the illustrations of Arthur Rackham, Alfred Bestall, Margaret Tarrent and Cicely Mary Barker to name but a few; All beautiful, classical and timeless fantasy illustrations; so if you see the odd pixie, imp or fairy pop up in my work you'll know why!

I am also inspired by the beautiful surroundings of the New Forest, Jurassic coastline and countryside of Dorset.

I was fortunate to encounter ceramics at secondary school and immediately fell in love
