Hand-built stoneware ceramics inspired by westerly coastal regions of Wales and Scotland. The bottles are slab built, with small necks and shoulders to give the work a figurative feeling. They are decorated with slips, marks and glaze to create a sense of the sea and shoreline.
The range of seashell and pebble vessels now includes darker red clay, which adds a depth to the glaze finish.
An on going body of work has been developed from drawings of ancient objects, tools and rock carvings found within the landscape of the coastal regions of Wales and Scotland. The collection features coiled and pinched vessels in a variety of sizes and finishes including black clay with carved detail.
