About


Clay, though it has its challenges, is a joy.  I love that it is tactile and meditative and that you get a result instantly, whether good or bad.  I love that you can live with it - wear it on your body, eat out of it, keep flowers in it or grow plants out of it.  I love the transformations and surprises you get out of the kiln.  I love the way it teaches you patience and to try again, to try a different way. Sometimes that magical alchemy that happens in the mix of elements knows better than you what’s good. 

I was a painter before I ever got my hands in the clay and I tend to draw for a lot of my work. I formally studied clay over seven years at Southbank Tafe in Brisbane and have been working consistently ever since.  I have shown regularly at Paper Boat Press Gallery and have recently had work in the Museum of Brisbane exhibition CLAY.  My piece from the COMMUNE part of the exhibition was aquired for their permanent collection.

My work is constantly evolving but I am always inspired by nature and art. I particularly love my work to be useful and used as I believe the interaction you have with something handmade can bring you into the moment and make your everyday that bit more special. 

I make the work for you, and a little bit for me so I hope you like it and enjoy having it in your lives.  :)
