Where there’s art, there’s love.

I’m a potter, writer. artist and designer, nestled in a 200 year old home in southern Germany’s Black Forest. My days are filled with endless creative activities, making custom tableware for restaurants and wineries, writing for my Substack publication, painting and taking long walks in the woods with my husband Michael. When we’re not here, we’re also at home in northern Italy, visiting friends, enjoying the wine, food and dolce far niente of Italian life.

I’m passionate about sharing my creativity with others to help them follow their most colourful and rich dreams.

Ceramics

I came to pottery as an adult while living in Hamburg. At first the thought was to be able to try my hand at something tactile and creative. But these goals quickly grew and before long, I had my own studio and was producing for clients and exhibitions. I create durable, bespoke stoneware tableware for exclusive restaurants, wineries, and clients. Now into my 27th year of making pots, the work is as exciting as the day I started.

Gardening

Food and ceramics are so closely related. We’ve kept gardens for years, and over time, our gardens have become more natural, less weeded, more nutritionally dense and wilder. These vegetables and herbs are used in our supper club, where we combine foraged and gardened vegetables and fruits, local organic meats and fish, with wines from our wine company, Babarolo.

Mixed Media Art

I’ve created mixed media art for over 25 years, with any materials I can find. Some of my best work happens if I remember not to take it or myself too seriously. I work on commissions and am going to sell prints here… watch this space!
