POTTERY


“I started going to Carol’s studio about 8 years ago. She taught me on a one to one basis and I rarely missed a week.
She is a brilliant tutor and a wonderful person. She is friendly, funny and kind. She has been inspiring and encouraging. Her teaching skills can’t be faulted.
At the beginning I found throwing on the wheel difficult and frustrating, but with Carol’s calm support I gradually improved and began to believe in myself and throw with confidence.
It’s not all about throwing though as there a many different ways to create things with clay.
Carol can  guide you through the various techniques and also teach the practicalities of each step of making something, such as drying, turning, glazing and firing.
It was Carol who encouraged me  to set up on my own and without her I would never have done it.
So thank you Carol, this has changed my life. I encourage anyone who wants to try pottery and be creative with clay to go to Carol. You’ll have a rewarding experience and have lots of fun!!!” (Annette Stanton)

“I had no experience of pottery before and am disabled. I told Carol beforehand and she very thoughtfully prepared options than using the pottery wheel so I could choose which I liked.  My friend used the wheel and had excellent one to one tuition from Carol.  By the end he had made three beautiful bowls!  I cut out porcelain clay into pretty Christmas decorations that I embossed with Christmas patterns.  I had one of the best days I’ve had in a long time, as did my friend. We had a gorgeous homemade lunch, and found Carol kind, thoughtful and very good company. Thank you so much for a wonderful day. 10/10!” (Angela Wright)
