Workshops Autumn 09

Welcome to join me and discover how much fun you can have with a piece of clay on one of my unique short ceramic courses. Drawing on my 25 years of experience as a ceramic artist and teacher, these small and informal workshops will have you creating unique and amusing work in an easy way, whether you are a complete beginner or have previously worked with clay. The groups are small and informal and the aim is for you to have fun and produce work you’re really happy with.

The courses are run from my studio in a fantastic period house overlooking historic Hastings Old town. In the summer the French doors are open towards the garden and the sea, and in the winter months a log fire in the ornate marble fireplace warms the room. There are two courses to choose from:smoke_birds_in_bin1
