The process of making pottery is one that I have been part of since the end of 2020. After becoming enchanted and fascinated with the craft and indulging in a great deal of research and reading about the Mingei movement I finally found myself placed in a pottery studio. I had contacted a studio owner in Sheffield asking if I could visit. Upon arriving at the studio, my enthusiasm was bubbling over. The studio potter must have sensed it because he soon facilitated me to to try throwing clay on the potter's wheel for the first time. It was a true moment of inception as I watched his demonstration of basic throwing and then tried myself. Since then I haven't stopped!
