My 6 year old niece asked me awhile ago what I do for a job (she had just been on a visit to her dads' job in an office). We were in my studio at the time, playing with clay. I said "this is my job". She said "What! You make lots and lots of things out of clay and that's your job?" "Yep, you've got it". I'm not sure if she was impressed or thought her aunty had lost the plot...

My life is simple. I make lots and lots of things out of clay and then sell them in various places; in galleries, in shops, at market, and here.

It took me awhile to arrive at this simple existence. First I was in an office working as a Landscape Architect. Next I was a student again, learning about clay, then I was working in a series of pottery workshops - some big, some small. Then, oops, I found myself working in a large Bank in England. Then finally after many years, I am back in Sydney running my own pottery studio business.

Those 'lots and lots of things out of clay" are functional tablewares, feature vessels and occasional sculpture and jewellery.
