While I find it so rewarding to simply throw on the wheel, for me it has to be balanced with a rigour where each piece is conceived, designed and drawn to scale, then made. I’m always searching for form and function with an aesthetic which has a pared back simplicity.

My background has been almost exclusively within the film industry, working over the past 40 years as a production designer and art director.

In parallel with this, I have a strong interest in architecture and studied this part time.

My process and work are influenced by these combined interests.
