Thank You

A sincere thank you to all those who braved the heat wave to come along to my Annual Open Studio & Sale.

In spite of the heat there were generous conversations about the making and using of handmade objects.

Unfortunately here in Australia we are young when it comes to the appreciation of using handmade objects in our everyday life. They can bring such joy when you think of using a piece of art to eat, drink or even serve from.

Your support is immeasurable speaking from a maker’s perspective.

Thank you so much and enjoy your new treasures.

PAN POTTERY AWARD

I am delighted and honoured to have been presented with the inaugural Pãn Award 2022 “Potter of the Year’.

to quote Bridget and Angus McDiarmid…

‘The Pãn Award was conceived on the wheel making pots, thinking about the lack of celebration and recognition for the great potters of Australia and young potters dedicating their life to the craft!

Realising action was needed I spoke to my wife Bridge and the boys and we decided to start an annual award for potters who are making great pots and who have dedicated their life to the craft!

This annual award is based entirely on the energy and beauty of the pot and potter and the joyful union of craft and function when you use one of their vessels!
