Maker's bio

I've been selling my ceramic creations in shops, galleries and exhibitions as well as teaching pottery for about 15 years. During this time, I've received national recognition for my sea-inspired sculptures, set up an arts and crafts community (where my studio is presently located) and teach pottery to more than 40 people every week. As my own pottery evolves in style and inspiration, so do the classes. I share my explorations and experiments offering opportunities to always learn new things.

Jane Hudson reviewed: Dorset weekly pottery classes

"I love Rachel's pottery classes. The group is lively and fun and very supportive, and I would love to do it every day if I had the time. Even though I am a real novice to the Art she never makes me feel I have nothing to contribute and I have been very pleased with the pieces I have produced. I look forward to learning more and hopefully getting more proficient!"

Rachel Fooks Ceramics responded:

"Thank Jane... you are already very proficient! Looking forward to the new term."

Philip reviewed: Dorset weekly pottery classes

"Dear reader, Just sign up for this course. Nothing beats the magic of making pots and ceramic sculptures in Rachel Fooks' classes. Rachel is a gifted teacher and inspires great creativity. Sometimes form leads to function. There is nothing more pleasurable than drinking tea from jugs, teapots, cups and mugs you have made yourself. Sometimes form leads to sculptural aesthetics. I have a number of pots on the bookshelf and in the garden that I just enjoy looking at. Rachel’s workshop is a lovely light space where you work in an artists community surrounded by inspiration and considerable talent. Dear reader you’ve read too much...sign up for the course!"
