Corinna Chivers

I have made an eclectic range of largely useful items, in both stoneware and earthenware. Most of my work is hand-built.

Deborah Clarke

I enjoy the randomness of pattern and colour that pit and bonfire firings give; the excitement of the unpredictable results of firing with wood is like opening presents on Christmas day!

Frauke Fege

My inspiration comes from a wide field, including the figure, body language and movement, erosion and the local landscape and colours of the coast.

Grazyna Schweidler

I enjoy experimenting with coloured slips , mixing my own glazes and teaching.

Rosemarie James

My work is organic in nature, I make finely balanced forms, enhanced by glazes of depth, richness and movement.

Suzette Knight

I want my work to have the feeling that it has been bolted together from an assortment of found or broken objects to create a functional piece

Lynne Dinmore

Using Earthenware, stoneware and porcelain I make a variety of decorative and functional ceramics, always with an emphasis on fineness and delicacy.

Janice Powley

I create contemporary functional ceramics to be used and enjoyed every day in the home or office

Fiona Kelly

I am mainly making functional stoneware pottery. Much of my inspiration comes from the sea and nature.

Holly Sandham

I produce a range of pots, platters and planters, all based on a Jurassic theme. The shapes for my pieces are organic, mainly based on curves, emulating the open, undulating areas of the coastline.

Sandra Cook

I am interested in an eclectic mixture of subjects including sea, nature and faces.

Jan Thompson-Taylor

I make pieces in a variety of scales from large, stoneware planters and water features based on mediaeval images and Green Men, to thrown pots and tiles.

Angela Wiseman

Inspired by nature and the New Forest countryside, I make work for the garden and home.

Mike Besser

I have always been inspired by the beauty and technical qualities of the classical Chinese ceramics particularly the porcelains of the Song and Yuan dynasties.

Reggie Coelho

I moved to Poole in 2015 and put together a small studio where I have been potting in my spare time, manly throwing on a wheel, experimenting with with textures and finding glazing combinations.
