I am an amateur potter and artist.  These are activities I took up when I retired and I love working in my studio, especially when it is cold and rainy in the winter months.  Turning what is basically a lump of mud into a pleasing shape I find most exhilarating and I revel in bright colours especially on white earthenware.  Opening my electric kiln after a glaze firing is always incredibly exciting.

 

I work with porcelain and also with brown and white earthenware, using a variety of techniques.  I make many of my own glazes and I am always experimenting.  I aim to produce inexpensive, cheerful pieces which people will enjoy using.

 

I sell my work in aid of the RNLI at an annual exhibition in the Rock Institute.  I do this jointly with our artist daughter, Sarah Poppleton.  It is great fun.

 

Visitors are welcome but need to make an appointment.
