Where to Find my Work

Lisa, Linda, Jennifer and I are joining forces again for our annual June show and sale.
We extend a warm welcome to everyone to drop by to see what we've been up to. There will be plenty of beautiful art pieces on display so feel free to browse, chat and take your time to see it all. Pop in to say hello, stay for a chat or stroll on through.
The four of us will be there rain or shine. We celebrate the handmade and we'd love to show you what we do. Creating where we live!
Lisa Samphire makes stunning hot glass using murrines, inspired by the garden and beach;
Linda Rajotte crafts unique silver jewellery inspired by sea, surf and sand;
Jennifer McIntyre creates colourful paintings, many with garden inspired themes;
and I love to make colourful pieces to liven up or compliment any garden.
​
Heartfelt thanks to everyone who visits our Art in the Garden events. It is always wonderful to connect in person with so many visitors and friends.
It is one of my favourite events of the year and many of our Oaklands neighbours tell us they look forward to it every June. In this wonderful informal setting we get to see what our fellow artists have been making over the past year. It's also a good opportunity for our friends and followers to find out a bit of what we do and how and where we do it. Our work is our passion, and we'd love to share it with you.​
​
There will be 10 participating artists as usual, which will be decided closer to the date.​​
​
The venue has parking, is wheelchair accessible, and admission is free. Everyone welcome!
Saturday November 8th. 10 am to 4 pm

TEACHING AND WORKSHOPS
I teach workshops by arrangement, on all aspects of the ceramic process. Contact me for information.
*No classes are scheduled at present.*
My most popular workshop: "Embellishing the ceramic surface, with the Versatility of Stains, Underglazes and Slips" This one day workshop will include demonstrations of ways that I use these colouring agents in my work.
