I pot either using slip decorated earthenware or ash glazed porcelain. The innate quality of porcelain accentuates the soft and gentle forms I am drawn to throw. I look for a ‘sense of Quiet’. Whereas my earthenware pieces often begin with the clay as a canvas working wet slip into wet, layer upon layer of pours, drips, trails. feathering and brush marks delivered with intensity and speed. Each piece is carefully considered in response to the moment of process, new ideas, or to previous experience. I make with a deep respect for past tradition yet aim for a contemporary edge.
