About

Gill grew up in the Cornish village of St Agnes, from where she still sources her clay. She fell in love with clay at primary school, and basic throwing lessons at Newquay Tretherras Secondary School led to qualifications in Art and Design, including a Master’s degree in Ceramics.

During 16 years of Art and Design and Ceramic teaching, Gill continued to throw pots as presents for friends. Moving to Sytch Farm eight years ago gave her the chance to have her first private pottery and an opportunity to build on her skills.

All pottery is hand thrown, turned and glazed by Gill and fired with food safe glazes in one of her two kilns. Gill loves a bit of peace when working and likes listening to audiobooks, and she can often complete a book a day in busy times.
