Ceramics for your Garden
I am a keen gardener and love spending time outside. My garden is both pretty and productive and I grow a lot of my food myself. I just love when things work and double up being pretty. In winter, I often found that my garden looks everything but pretty and I started designing pottery to change this. I now have a catalogue of garden ceramics that includes Hanging baskets, bird and butterfly feeders, gnomies and much more. I will show you a few of them here. All of them have a story to tell and I dare you to ask ...

Gingko Collection
Inspired by the lovely ginkgo tree that is growing in my front garden, I started designing a series of work that reflect this beautiful texture. All my work is hand-build, oven proof, dishwasher and food safe.
Play Collection
3 years ago, I acquired a potters wheel. I played and I learned, I made mistakes and I tried again. An this is how this collection came about. All the pieces are made on the wheel and I decided to use a range of colourful glazes to make them stand out.
Nerikomi Collection
Nerikomi is a Japanese technique for creating pottery in multiple colors of clay. The technique is also called neriage or agateware.
This collection is my take on it, and I am using black and white porcelain. All other colours are mixed in with pigments. I love how unpredictable this process is and can spend hours loosing myself experimenting.
