Pottery
“Since completing my degree in 3D Design Ceramics at West Surrey College of Art & Design in 1987, I have continued to make while teaching. I taught Ceramics on the BTec Ceramics course at the Royal Forest of Dean College from 1990 til 1997. I taught pottery evening classes in Usk, and I’ve been teaching pottery evening classes in Chepstow since 1990. I managed an Arts Studio in Monmouth for Monmouthshire County Council from 2004 until 2016 working with adults with physical and learning disabilities.
As a member of South Wales Potters I have exhibited my work in group exhibitions throughout Wales.”
