My work uses varied clays, primarily porcelain or paperclay made with porcelain slip which is used for large scale murals and wall panels as well as some platters and smaller dishes.

Current work makes much use of strong colour and pattern; decorating methods include spraying, stencils, screen printing and brushwork. Some murals also include areas of textured relief which can be felt by the visually impaired.

Wall pieces frequently consist of a series of panels linked by the theme but each individually composed. The feeling is contemporary, abstract, often using imagery from flags, or symbols seen in everyday life and understood without words. The work is high fired and usually waxed and burnished with little use of glaze.

Tile designs for interior decor are also hand painted with themes to suit clients' specifications. These are in earthenware, with coloured glazes and use manufactured bisque tiles which can be incorporated easily into standard ranges in areas ranging from small panels of a few tiles to entire walls.

I researched and wrote 'Working with Paperclay and Other Additives' published by Crowood Press in 2000.
