I am an artist who enjoys anything creative . My passion at present is ceramics . I like to travel since retiring and enjoy venturing out to discover different parts of the world and of course Aotearoa. When I am not travelling or have my hands covered in clay I like to be out in my garden. My home is also one of my creative projects and I hope that you enjoy your time soaking up the tranquility and art inspired ambience I have created here . I get great pleasure out of sharing something I have created and my home is one of those .
