me |
 |
I attended Exeter College of Art from 1974 - 1977 where I obtained a BA Hons in Fine Art Ceramics, with the guidance of Brian Southwell, Edward Allington and Lawson Rudge. | |
| In 1978 I was the first person employed by Paul Cardew in his first business Sunshine Ceramics. After a few years making and decorating all manner of odd shaped ashtrays, punk mugs and Nat West piggy banks, I left to concentrate on my own work. |  |

 |
In 1980 I made a range of brooches which were selected by the Design Centre. By 1983 with a converted pigsty as a workshop, I had made my first teapot...a black and white harlequin. Encouraged by The Teahouse in Covent Garden London I began to make more teapots.....and the bug bit! | |
| In the mid 80's I moved to larger premises in Devon and began exporting to France, Germany, Italy and Japan as well as supplying many shops in the UK with a wide range of unusual teapots. |  |
|
 |
In 1990 I moved to North Cornwall in order to combine home and workplace and escape the rat race of Devon! In 1994 I was honoured to be presented to Prince Charles as part of Cornwall's "In Pursuit of Excellence" scheme. | |
| I export a large percentage of my work to the U.S.A. and in recent years I have been commisioned to make various salt and pepper sets for the Salt and Pepper Collectors Club of America! (see Cosmic Zoom for more details and photographs) I continue to make teapots and salt and pepper pots but plan to expand my work into more sculptural areas in the future. I also enjoy building websites for squashbug webdesign! |
