About Me

I first learned how to throw at summer camp in America on a kick wheel.  Since then, I have had access to pottery classes or studios on and off for more than 30 years.  I have always loved throwing on the wheel, it is my meditation.  I never really focused on surface design until I did my BTEC at Westminster Adult Education.  I have travelled to the British museum, the Victoria and Albert and walks in the woods to gain inspiration for decorations.  I am particularly drawn to birch trees and I love using sgraffito (carving the surface through one colour to reveal another colour underneath) to produce decorations.

Based in West London. I am a doctor and busy Mum of three boys.  So I enjoy escaping into my world of pottery.  My dream is a pottery studio on the island in Yeats's poem: Lake Isle of Innisfree
