I have been a studio potter for the past 7 years living and working from my farmhouse in Thurlstone.

Originally from the South of England I moved up to the Pennines in the late 1980’s.

I have always been involved in art trying different mediums but when I started ceramics at Barnsley Art College I absolutely loved throwing clay on the wheel and since then I have become completely absorbed and gone on to develop my craft more seriously.

I have a small studio where I am able to throw and fire my work, which is primarily wheel thrown pieces in stoneware and porcelain. I am interested in both functional kitchen and tableware ware and I also throw one off pieces where I endeavour to stretch my creativity. I attempt to create pieces with a simple aura about them and fire my work mainly in an electric kiln.
