I studied Design at Tai Tokerau Polytech in Whangarei over 30 years ago. One of the mediums we learnt through was clay. I fell in love with clay instantly, and have sculpted and potted pretty constantly ever since. 

 

My work has gone in lots of different directions over the years,  and I’ve enjoyed all of them. Right now I’m loving making these simple forms with gritty texture and dark matte glaze. And experimenting with angels on driftwood. 

 

My studio is part of our cliff top home and overlooks the Hauraki Gulf. I’m completely happy sitting in such a beautiful place and creating work that I really like.

 

I’d love to share my work and my beautiful studio with you during the Arts Tour.
