I have been a professional Studio potter for over 20 years since graduation and I have been teaching for all of them, from Degree level, Adult education and latterly, at my workshop in Salhouse.
I exhibit Nationally and Internationally and have work in both fine art galleries and galleries specialising in Studio Ceramics. I regularly show at National Ceramic events such as "Potfest".

Pottery throwing sessions on the potter's wheel in Norfolk
"It was great fun. Both my wife and I really enjoyed it. We are a pair of “golden oldies”and a bit slow to learn but Pat was so helpful and considerate. Can recommend her professionalism 100%. Will probably go back for another session."
"This was the most amazing experience, really hands on and Pat is an absolutely awesome person and teacher. Had an absolute blast and would 1000% recommend this to anyone especially if you've always thought about trying it, it was way better than expected "
Pat Southwood responded:
"Hi Grace, it was lovely to meet you today, so glad I was able to fulfill a last minute decision. You did really well and should maybe consider classes, you have a very steady hand! Thanks you so much for such a kind and enthusiastic review!"
"What fabulous birthday gift from my husband,we did this together. Pat was very friendly and welcoming, she explained everything clearly,pat is very knowledgeable in her craft,we had a really fun afternoon, thank so much "
Pat Southwood responded:
"Thank you so much, it was lovely to meet you both, so glad you enjoyed yourselves. "
"I booked this experience for my wife and I as a surprise for her birthday. Neither of us had ever done this before but we both enjoy watching it on the tv and are always up for something new. We weren’t disappointed.
Pat was very friendly and welcoming and explained clearly how and what to do. We each had our own wheel and so made the most of the two hours. She provided just enough help so we didn’t get lost but enough to encourage us to improve and learn.
We both enjoyed our time with Pat, felt quite proud of what we achieved and would definitely recommend others to try. In fact we already have passed her details on to friends. "
Pat Southwood responded:
"Thank you Derek, it was a pleasure having you both in the studio and you both did very well, your pots are drying nicely and I will be in touch when they are ready. Pat. "
