Born in Australia 1954, resident in England since the mid 1980's.
My work is about simple forms imbued with a sense of spontaneity.
'Raku' as a technique allows me the opportunity to embrace the element of surprise,seeing and knowing then becomes as important as the making. This philosophical approach is mirrored in my recent bronze pieces.
Full exhibiting member of both The Devon Guild of Craftsmen and the CPA Craftsman potters association of Great Britain.

1973-77 Salisbury Teachers College, Adelaide University. Diploma of Teaching. B Ed.
