Back to College

Back to College. 
Llandrillo College, Rhos on sea. Was one of the best experience for me as a maker.
As that's were my interest started in ceramics.

The two above are both hand built, coiled vessels. Each stand around 2 feet tall.
Each and every butterfly is hand crafted.

A Touch of Wood?

First Year - Second Semester 2013 Staffordshire University
So what did my first year in university bring? Exploration, Excitement, Earthenware? All of the above and much more. During this particular module we were asked to combine to materials. So I immediately thought of ceramics and wood, but instead of quite literally putting them together I thought I'd incorporate one into the other. Putting wood elements into a ceramic outcome. To hopefully create a beautiful product
Because of time issues I only managed to make a sample cast pieces.
