Through my ceramics I am striving to achieve the balance between a strong traditional feel, whilst still maintaining a tresh and contemporary aesthetic. I am working with traditional glazes such as Delft style blue and white tin glazes and incorporating elements from Staffordshire flat-back and Meissen table centrepieces. I intend to portray a typically 'British' sense of humour and nostalgia, similar in style to saucy seaside postcards, carry on films and such like. My work is not born out of conceptual ideas, and I make no apology for this, as it comes from an instinctive desire to make objects which are pleasing to look at.
