Ceramics

 

I studied a Masters at Staffordshire University in Ceramic Design for Production, graduating in 2003. Following this I won many awards for my collections of work including Jaguar Product Design Award and Johnson Matthey Shape Design Award. I later went on to gain a PGCE in Art & Design and have spent the last 20 years teaching Art & Design, Product Design and Ceramic Design in Schools, University and at MAC Birmingham.

Alongside teaching, for the past 10 years I have run my contemporary ceramics practice from my home studio in Birmingham, England. Here I design, model and make by hand luxury giftware and interior products that add beauty to the home and are a joy to use everyday. Combining heritage ceramic production processes of plaster modelling, mould making & slip-casting and using the finest English Bone China my ceramics are elegant, understated and timeless and are made to last a lifetime or more.....
