 My influences come from parents ( Howard and Diana ) who made a living from pottery from the 1970's and from Grandparents who were hobby potters. Sourcing my own clay has become an interest as it was for them. 
Also , from Harry and May Davis , one of the pioneer craft pottery families in Nelson and from working for Royce McGlashen  for 3 years in the 80's which honed my production throwing skills. 
Current work is mostly tableware with an emphasis on integrity of the clay body and glaze partnership . There is some fun stuff too like the seagulls which were adopted from Ralph and Sally Hetzel in 2013.
