I see myself as a maker of objects, whether with a pretence of use or purely visual.

My inspirations are broad and eclectic, I am drawn to objects. The ones I find most alluring and inspirational are from global cultural history, where we are not sure of their function or use. My imagination remains open and keeps a sense of wonder for these pieces.

I am drawn to the mystery where the primary motivator is the unknown, trying to find answers to questions that inevitably lead to more questions. There is no final answer, I am attempting to create vehicles or vessels for the imagination to journey with. I am in control of some aspects of the making but the final firing is something I can only influence and keeps the kiln opening an exciting event.
