​

I have a passion for hand-building in clay, mostly using slabs, occasionally coils, to create tactile sculptural pieces.

​

​

I find Moray a huge source of inspiration - its coastline, hills, woods and rolling farmlands, its changing light, textures and colours.

​

​

I experiment with smoke and pit firing to create unpredictable finishes.  I have also been drawn to work with raku firing using matt patinas.  More recently, I have been getting interesting results placing pieces in saggars (clay containers) then firing them in my electric kiln.

​​

​

My original studio was established in the annexe attached to my home in Forres (hence the website name 'Ceramics at the Annexe'). However I have recently moved to the village of Dyke, where I have built a beautiful new purpose built studio in the garden.

​

​

The studio is open during the North East Open Studios event every September, otherwise I am very happy to welcome visitors by appointment.
