I am delighted to announce that I have been accepted as a full member of the Society of Designer Craftsmen (MSDC). It's a great honour and I'm very proud to be a member of one of the oldest and most highly regarded arts and crafts society in the UK.
I am also extremely pleased to have also been accepted as a professional member of Design Nation. A wonderful community full of energy and ideas as well as a stunning portfolio of talent.
Recently I had a great time at the CPA Oxford Ceramics fair. It's so wonderful to meet my customers as well as mix with others potters. It can get a bit lonely out here on the Essex coast so I'm always ready for a chat about ceramics.
My next trip will be to York for the CPA York Ceramics fair on 7-8 March 2026. This is my first visit to a ceramic event north of Norwich. I'll put a link up as soon as one is available. I hope you can come. As per last year, it will be held at York racecourse.
I'm also over the moon at finding out that I have been selected to participate in Ceramic Art London (CAL) fair next year. It will be my second time and I'm very excited!
Christmas at the Ceramic Centre is coming very soon and there will plenty of wonderful ceramics by many of the CPA makers. I have delivered plenty of work, ranging from large centrepiece bowls to small pods - price ranges to suit all.
Check out the link for details.
And finally - I'm very proud to have been selected to feature in the latest edition (VIII) of Artiste Culture's The Art Bridge Publication. Look out for it on Instagram. If you go to the link, it's a big file to download but well worth it. 'Weaving Global Perspectives in Contemporary Art 'is a fascinating collection of articles, interviews and features from a wide range of artists from across the globe. I hope you enjoy it.
You can of course still purchase my work at any of the stockists listed below but if there is anything you specifically would like, then please reach out to me by email or DM Instagram. I will be able to tell you what stock each gallery has to save you a journey.

A sense of place
As you walk along a beach, your eye is often drawn to a particular stone or shell. Who knows what it is that makes it stand out from the crowd, and as you pick it up you admire its colours, texture and form before putting it in your pocket.
It feels good in your hand as you explore its form and surfaces which tells the story of its long journey through the rough hands of the waves and tides. When wet the stone is shiny and bright but as it dries the colours become muted, more in keeping with the tones of the surrounding beach.
Inspired by coastal form, colour and light
I create hand built contemporary vessels, inspired by my discovery of the salt marshes and tidal coastline that surround me, where sand and stones, plants and birds, water and sky perform a complex dance to tidal rhythms – every element bearing the unmistakable stamp of its origin.
My aim is to create artwork that embodies the sense of peace that I find when contemplating the tidal coast, both at large and small scale.
