The Work

My work is rooted in a deep and quiet attentiveness to the natural world — the blush of a sunrise, the slow burn of a winter sunset, the way light shifts across a hillside from one moment to the next. I’m drawn to the small, often-overlooked details: skeleton leaves held up to the sky, the stark elegance of bare winter trees, the drama of clouds building on the horizon. Weather, atmosphere, and emotion are as much my materials as paint and clay. Escaping to wide open spaces is more than inspiration — it is necessity. The vastness of landscape quiets the noise, restores a sense of calm, and returns me to myself. That stillness is what I bring back to the studio, and what I hope my work carries into your home.

My acrylic landscape paintings are layered with washes, drips, and expressive marks that reflect nature’s raw beauty, inviting a sense of stillness and emotional connection.

My ceramic work mirrors this philosophy, embracing the Japanese Wabi-Sabi aesthetic — finding beauty in imperfection. Each porcelain vessel is hand-built, textured with relief details, and layered with glazes that echo the earth’s organic patterns. Every piece is an intimate reflection of the landscapes I love to walk in, designed to bring a sense of tranquility into the home.

My work is exhibited in galleries across the UK — including Old Courthouse Gallery (Ambleside), The Pole Star Gallery (Keswick), Brightwater Gallery (Alnwick), Number Four Gallery (St Abbs), and The Sanctuary Gallery (Newnham) — and I am listed in the Crafts Council Directory.

I welcome commissions for bespoke pieces that carry the same emotional depth and connection to nature. All ceramic work is designed and made by me in my two studios in Greater Manchester.
