About Me

Introduction

I’m Kate, based in Kent, UK.  I run a studio where we teach throwing and hand building but we specialise in decorating techniques.

What I Love about Ceramics

I love all things ceramic related, everyday being a new adventure.  Opening the kiln on a successful firing is one of my favourite things.

How I started with ceramics

My ceramics journey started as a way to relax after a busy weeks work and over the years began to turn from a hobby into a business.

What inspires me

I’m lucky enough to live and work on a flower farm so much of my inspiration comes from the natural world.

What I'm working on at the moment

Samples for new classes for the new year.
