I am a small-batch potter, creating from my home studio—a sea container nestled in my backyard in Broadwater, Busselton. In this practical yet creative space, I craft unique ceramics that balance the sculptural with the functional. Each piece is a personal creation, made with a blend of wheel-throwing and hand-building techniques, then fired in my gas kiln on a family property in Vasse.
I work with a variety of stoneware and develop my own glazes from raw materials. I utilise a variety of glaze applications and combinations, producing ceramics that stand out for their individuality and purpose. I aim to capture a sense of movement, texture, and personality in every piece. Clay, for me, is more than a medium—it’s a way of telling stories and expressing something deeply personal. When glazing, I focus on highlighting the nuances of texture and colour, creating work that invites not just the eye, but the touch. My pieces are meant to be experienced physically as much as visually, and this tactile connection is one of the driving forces behind my art.
I sell most of my work directly through social media and my website, but you can also find my ceramics in Busselton at the Old Courthouse Complex, and in Bunbury at The Red Mill Store. Both spaces focus on showcasing local artisans in historic buildings, making them the perfect home for my pieces.
For the past three years, I’ve had the pleasure of participating in Margaret River Region Open Studios. It’s been an incredible experience sharing my work with visitors and chatting about all things clay. These connections have sparked deep appreciation and lasting relationships with ceramic enthusiasts locally and across Australia.
I’d love to invite you into my home studio during this event. I’m thrilled to share new works, and I can’t wait for you to experience my updated space. There’s nothing quite like the joy of meeting fellow art lovers, diving into the creative process, and passing my work directly from my hands to yours.
