All the pottery in my shop is thrown or hand built and hand printed designs are added to the glazed surfaces inspired by my local natural environment and the simple pleasures of everyday life.

Each piece is thrown and hand built with dark earthenware or speckled stoneware clay in my studio in inverness shire.
