My
ceramics have slowly evolved over the years. I now concentrate on producing
limited
additions which share a common design concept. I am currently working
on
a range of double-walled bowl forms. The idea of positive and negative
space
interests
me; the relationship between the inner and outer form is always
challenging.
Inspiration for the work largely derives from observing the
landscape
and natural forms. All of the work is hand built using coiling and press
moulding
techniques in both earthenware and stoneware clays. I have developed
my
own glazes which produce richly coloured and textured surfaces. I have
exhibited
widely throughout the UK and abroad and have work in both private
and
public collections.
