About

When I was young, my family migrated to Australia from England.

To us Australia represented opportunity. Being here –  in Tasmania – enabled me to pursue my love of art.

I  became an art teacher, specialising in ceramics.

I taught pottery and 20th century art history to grade 11 and 12 students in Launceston for 8 years before returning to Hobart for further study at the Centre for the Arts. As part of my post graduate studies, I tackled the process of slip casting for the first time. I’ve been slip casting ever since.

I now work from my studio at home, combining family life with part-time teaching  and a small business producing limited edition tableware to select outlets throughout Australia.
