      <image:caption>My pottery journey began a little under 30 years ago, work and life meant that it got put on the back burner. My passion was re-ignited whilst seeking calm and refuge from my job - the self prescribed treatment was just what was needed for me to take a leap of faith and start taking my pottery a little more seriously. And here I am today, feeling incredibly happy and blessed. The black shed pottery was born from the amazing space my lovely husband built me in his spare time at our previous home - his support and encouragement to take a different road has been so valuable and very much appreciated. To him and those who believe in me I am forever grateful. We recently moved closer to our daughter in Waihi, and the black shed journey continues here. Each piece I make is done so with joy - there is no perfection striven for. I was taught as a child to cherish the imperfections of life as they hold so many gifts, lessons and inspirations. Pottery is perfectly imperfect and I love each piece that I make and am so privileged to be able to share it with others. Every piece is unique and irreplaceable. Pottery takes a little time and I don't like to rush the process and as a small batch lone potter it means only I am involved in your order.</image:caption>
