My creations are all  fired outside my workshop here in Stubbington, Hampshire, UK.  I use the Naked Raku process and  Raku Glazes, but also love producing pieces using the Saggar method.

The Raku pots are fired to approx 900c and then are put into a Reduction Bin.  I use different materials for the reduction, cardboard, newspaper, sawdust or even dried oak leaves. It is then left in the Reduction Bin where the smoke does its work.

Removing the piece from the Bin is the exciting stage, you really do not know what you have achieved until it is washed clean and the effects of the process appear before your eyes.

Every piece is different and unique, there are lots of examples shown in the Gallery.
