The basis of my work is a preoccupation with the illusive qualities of narrative suggested by architectural and theatrical spaces.
These concepts are expressed in paintings and abstract sculptural pieces through form, colour and graphic elements.
After a year in the Theatre Department, I qualified in Graphic Design at the Central School of Art and Design |

I make thrown and hand-built forms which seek to explore the relationship between the man-made and the natural. I also produce thrown and press-moulded tableware; principally of an individual nature. |

I have a background in Archaeology and find that low fired early pottery is an ever present influence in my work. All my pots are hand-built, slipped and the surfaces burnished to a high polish. The individual patterning is obtained by smoke firing in sawdust. |

"Professional potter who has recently moved from Park St. Pottery in Minehead (after 12 years) to her home workshop now called Chapel House Pottery.
Her first love is working in porcelain for its whiteness, sensuality, delicacy and translucency. She also works with a white stoneware body for larger pieces. Much of her work is decorated with precious metals ie gold and lustres.
She has had many exhibitions and prestigious commissions which have included the Saudi Arabian Royal Family , and to sell her work on board the Queen Mary 2 (the largest most prestigious cruise ship in the world).
She is a member of the Devon Guild of Craftsmen.
Maureen gives private pottery lessons at her home workshop." |
