I am originally from Belgium, but now live and work in the Lake District. I started making ceramics when I lived in Holland, where I learned the throwing skills from a local potter. I carried on working with clay whilst living in different European countries. I have now settled in Broughton in Furness where I have my studio and sell from my home. I also participate from several ceramic fairs, both in this country and in Europe.

All my pieces are hand thrown on the wheel and when leather hard I burnish then to make them smooth and shiny. I fire the pots in sawdust and add organic matter, oxides, etc. to create different colours and effects.

Recently I started collaborating with textile artist, Rachael Singleton. The addition of textiles to some of my pieces is unusual and striking. I find this work very inspiring and exciting.
