"Ceramics Inspired By Nature"
Hi, Welcome to 'Ceramics Inspired By Nature' I make unique ceramics using the impression from real leaves. Each piece is individually handmade with love and healing intention. I make leaf tableware, wall art, vases and porcelain leaf jewellery and also accept commissions of any kind. You can even send me your own leaves and I will create something very special for you.

I first qualified in a Ba (Hons) ceramics from Bristol Bowerashton in 1995 under the guidance of Mo Jupp, Walter Keeler and Nick Homoky. This was a rich and immersive learning experience with three renowned potters as my tutors. In later years, I taught ceramics part-time at Clifton High School, running clay clubs for the junior and senior pupils. Although this was a rewarding experience, I decided to leave teaching to then focus my attention on becoming a professional ceramic artist in 2013 and blend my love of ceramics with the healing arts and nature.

Today, I sell my ceramics at local and national shows such as 'Celebrating Ceramics', Craft in Focus and also local art trails in Bristol and North Somerset. I also sell my work at select galleries in the South West such as the A2 Gallery in Wells and on select online platforms such as www.jewelstreet.com.

My ceramics has been aired on national TV in the UK on the 'Great British Menu' and used by Executive Head Chef Niall Keating for his 'chocolate frogs dessert' in 2020. My creative process using clay and leaves, has also been shown on ITV on the 'Love Your Weekend' show hosted by Alan Titchmarsh.
