The start of my career as a potter was an intensive wheel throwing course that I took in Barcelona. I got hooked straight away and continued with weekly throwing classes. 

Soon I discovered that there is a whole world of different ceramic techniques and started to explore as many of them as I could: handbuilding, mold making and slip casting and it turned out, that my favourite way to work is starting a piece on the wheel and then proceed to handbuilding in order to achieve the shapes I am looking for.

Glazing is another world that can change your pieces totally. I love experimenting with surface decoration and I develop my own glazes.

After a three months professionalisation course where I deepened my knowledge of ceramic materials, glaze formulation, handbuilding techniques, sculpture and wheel throwing as well as firing techniques it was clear that I had to open up my own pottery studio.
