Working in porcelain and stoneware, I enjoy their contrasting qualities. I also find the tension between form and decoration compelling. I am drawn to the many ceramic traditions where decoration is central, but always with an undertow pulling me back to first considerations of form and volume.

While abstract pattern has always been part of my work, more recently a sense of urgency about the declining state of nature has emerged in recurring themes of our native flora and fauna, drawn directly into the raw clay; the pots often single fired.
