Working in porcelain and stoneware, I combine drawing and printmaking to build narrative on the surface of decorative hand built ceramics. My drawings are inspired by mundane everyday scenes, moments of connection and half-remembered Scottish superstitions. Fingerprints, brush strokes and making marks are intentionally left exposed to accentuate the relationship between vessel and subject.
I initially studied Textile and Surface Design at Gray’s School of Art in 2010, before going on to study for a Masters in Illustration at Edinburgh College of Art in 2014. After graduating I moved from Inverness to Sheffield for the Ceramic Starter Studio at Yorkshire Artspace and have stayed put since.
