My inspiration is drawn from the natural world, working with red terracotta clay, using coiling and slab building techniques. I 'paint' using slips, underglaze colours and scraffitto drawing to create multi layerd painterly surfaces. After firing the pieces twice, I then apply metallic lustres in details and fire once again.

 

Every one of my ceramics are unique.
