I throw and decorate ceramics at my studio in Woodchester, with hand-painted patterns taking inspiration from pressed flowers and folklore.

How I became a potter

I began making pottery when I was 12 with a local ceramicist in 2018. I have been working as a technician at Stroud Pottery for a year since leaving Cirencester College where I studied art. I enjoy getting into my studio in my time off.
