Maker
My interest in ceramics began when I took an evening class in pottery aged 17. I then went on to gain a degree in Ceramics and 3D design at Bath Spa University, and after that a Masters degree in Ceramics at the Royal College of Art in London. I work in my purposely built garden studio. The studio is well equipped and has plenty of natural light. It's also a communal space as it is often busy with the students who come to my classes, which makes it a lovely space to work in.
