The Art Trail always gives me a chance to make new work and push things forward just a little bit. It also offers people an opportunity to see Ilfracombe and all the creativity it has to offer.

Clay is the most frustrating and rewarding material. Making a successful piece in the finish you hoped for can be very tricky and sometimes chance happenings are the best ones. It will always be an essential part of my life.

This year I hope to be a bit medieval. Please come and visit us.
