My hand-built ceramic vessels are strongly influenced by growing up near the sea and my time living, teaching and travelling the world. Throughout every country visited, there was one object that connected us all, the humble clay pot.

Every vessel I make is unique. I feel connected to the world through the feel of the clay in my hands. Moulding, shaping the building the form using a simple pinch pot to start and then coiling on top. The clay is the earth and once the body of my form is complete, I start my journey of exploring the surface decoration, which connects me to the colour and motion of the sea.
