Linlithgow Pottery is where clay mingles with imagination. The gift shop and workshop space are in the centre of Linlithgow on the high street. Our regular classes & members studio sits on two floors in an old stone building with a wood stove to keep us warm. Every day Freyja (my new four legged studio manager) and I walk along the canal to get to the studio. The best way to get those creative juices flowing. My work is inspired by the nature surrounding us. If we spot a mouse one might appear on the lid of a jar. The spiral of a fern opening might become a pattern on a platter or a cup. The ripples in the water could inspire me to carve at a piece in a way that the glaze can sit to emulate those ripples.
Creating is the largest part of me that I know. If I’m not making I’m not happy. I want to create works that will remind us all to pause. To give our minds a moment of rest. A cup that sits comfortably in your hands with texture to feel and glazes that draw you in and away. That is a cup to be had. A cup that makes that first hot tea more satisfying and sets you up with a positive start to your day.
As well as being a maker I also love sharing my passion with others. I teach small classes out of my high street shop where students can learn throwing and hand building techniques. My classes are relaxed and without judgement. I want everyone who comes for a class to leave the studio feeling lighter and wanting more!
If you like what you see pop by the shop to learn more about us and have a look around.
