Lidded Vessels

Lidded vessels (‘Tea Caddies’ are for holding tea, maybe, they remind me of allotment and garden sheds that have grown old. Able to do their job with a story attached).

Candlesticks

Candletsicks are made from eclectic pieces of Victorian detritus – clinker, cup-handles, teapot lids, gilded spouts, etc – found on the south bank of the Medway Estuary.

Drinking Vessels

My work is based around recycling, whether it is styles from different cultures or using the clay and glazes left over from teaching sessions.

Surface Decorated Vessels

I make visual and physical narratives on vessels and slab forms using gestural mark-making, silk-screen printing and photographic ceramic transfers.
