I was taught by distinguished artists such as James Tower and Howard Hodgkin at Bath Academy of Art (Corsham) in the 1960s. There, the influence was pre-industrial English ceramics such as Staffordshire slipware rather than the Leach tradition.
Today, my ceramics aim to tell a ‘story’ using surfaces rather like canvases. Some reflect trips to Australia, the mind-blowing landscape and especially the artwork of the First Australians. Others reveal my interest in universal mark-making across time, faith and continents. Still more unveil my life in Oxford, whether digging on the allotments or happily mooching around the city’s fabulous museums.
