Designer Maker Directory

<p>I am ceramicist & printmaker based in Greenwich,London. My background is in textile design and I trained at Central Saint Martins. During my time as a textile designer I developed many techniques of textures, marks, layering and drawing in different media.About ten years ago, after working in print and textiles, I started to produce ceramics as well.The influence of my training in textile design can be seen in my ceramic work in which I explore abstract mark making, textures & mono printing onto clay using clay slip & oxides.I Iove the work of post war British textile designers, the freedom of their mark marking & abstract pattern.I hand build bottles, a selection of dishes,succulent pots & decorative fish. Alongside my textile & ceramic work I have always made linocut prints.I have developed a series of children&#39;s nursery rhymes marrying imagery with text, an alphabet. I also am regularly commissioned to do linocut portraits of people&#39;s dogs & cats.</p>
