I am a ceramic artist creating mainly quirky female figurative sculptures.

Usually working with earthenware or porcelain paper clay, I hand build characterful animals and quirky female figures often with a steampunk twist. All of my pieces are hand built, made using coiling or slabbing techniques and after firing are normally finished with Amaco velvet underglazes, Mayco glazes or cold finishes.

I greatly admire the work of modern clay artists Johnson Tsang, Beth Carver and painter Georgy Kurasov. I search my imagination for inspiration rather than focusing on realism preferring to sculpt in a fantasy style often with steampunk/gothic twist. I am self-taught, my passion for painting and sculpture began as a young child and is still my main obsession in life, a means of expression, my therapy, my greatest satisfaction.

I love teaching having over 30 years’ experience and a City and Guilds teaching certificate. I have worked in several schools, colleges, clubs, and taught private groups in my Worcestershire studio.
