"It has been my life and I'm very lucky to have been involved in a subject I love. At present, besides working with groups of student of all levels including adults with learning difficulities, I am busy experimenting with new glazes as all the glazes that I have loved have been removed from the market. However this will be overcome. I have worked with Raku and earthenware most of my time. Colour is something which will tell me apart from other potters. Form is crucial. Its a massive journey. Mistakes and discoveries will be made. And eventually something really brilliant will happen yet again."
