Random Facts About You?I used to design for Umbro but I hate sport
I wear brown too much
I can never make up my mind about anything
I am a workacholic
What got you started crafting?
My mum was always making things for the local church fair so I helped out.
She taught me how to paint with Oils but I could not afford to frame my paintings. I found some old plates in the shed & decided to paint them as I could put them on display without having to buy frames. So I have painted on ceramics since I was 14.
What is your source of inspiration?
Nature, Wildness, Countryside, Gardens
What have you made recently?
Owl Air Freshener. I love things that look pretty but are also useful. I cut out this owl shape from Clay, it is fired in a kiln then I slip-trail the design & hand paint it. After a second fire I attach the little heart with ribbon onto the owl. Scented Oil can be put onto the little unglazed ceramic heart to fragrance a room.
Where do you sell your crafts presently?

Why are handmade crafts important to you?
