I approach the creation of my vessels with a dynamic energy and a sense of spontaneity, focusing on crafting the form and perfecting its surfaces throughout both the making and drying stages. Through the application of slips and oxides, I transform each surface, using layered materials to emphasize the plasticity and tactile essence of the clay, evoking the spirit and texture of natural landscapes.

My work challenges the boundaries of traditional pottery, reimagining clay as a medium for abstract sculptural art. Whether I begin with wheel-thrown or hand-built forms, I utilize the potter's wheel to shape and meticulously refine the outer surface of each creation.

While I often start with a vision for a vessel's final form, its true character is revealed through careful, intuitive manipulation. By incorporating clastic sedimentary stones and oxides, I create textures and patterns inspired by the rugged beauty of the Welsh landscape and coastline, which serve as the foundation for my Earth series.

The use of 200-million-year-old clastic sedimentary stones, beach quartz, granite, brushed and layered Anglesey copper, and hand-applied glazes infuses each piece with distinctive colors and textures. Every layer is thoughtfully applied to harmonize with the vessel, ensuring that no two pieces are alike—each is a unique, one-of-a-kind work of art.

Nature is my constant source of inspiration. I collect rocks, sedimentary stones, oxides, and fossils from across the UK, incorporating these elements into my evolving body of work. These collected materials allow me to craft pottery sculptures that are deeply rooted in the landscapes of Britain, Scotland, and Wales, celebrating their timeless beauty and history.
