As a ceramic artist based at Russborough House since 2011, I am a storyteller who shapes narratives through the alchemy of clay. My artistic philosophy centers on capturing the world’s beauty and endless possibilities. Working with diverse clays, from grogged stoneware for bold sculptures to delicate porcelain inspired by Russborough’s stucco ceilings, I weave a connection between past and present. The vibrant plants on the estate grounds fuel my creativity, infusing my pieces with the organic vitality of nature. A hand builder at heart, I embrace the challenge of creating a diverse yet interconnected body of work. In my studio, I am not merely a creator; I am an artist dedicated to inspiring others to discover their artistic potential, inviting them to share in the wonder and creativity that surrounds us.
