Jeanne is a studio potter and tutor. She holds a BA (Ceramics) from University of Westminster (Harrow) MA (Ceramics) from UCA (Farnham) and teaching qualification PGCHE from UCA (Farnham)
Flora and fauna, together with the
subject of feminity and 'blood of life,' have been a continuing theme in her work. Along with chasing Copper Reds in an electric kiln! Jeanne enjoys throwing and hand building, using a stoneware clay. Her thrown pieces are bisc fired, various red glazes are carefully hand painted onto each pot and the next day her designs are concealed under a transparent glaze. The glazes bloom in the heat of the kiln, resulting in floral creations that suggest something that exists in nature. An aesthetic exploration of feminity, ensconced in nature's fantasy!
Jeanne has taught adult education classes for Surrey County Council and Brunel University. She now teaches in her Maidenhead studio and has more time for her own work when she's not singing with her choir or playing her flute with her local band!

I have been a member of the Guild for so many years and have met some lovely people. Exhibited at HAT (from the start) and with various galleries. My feel good day is being in my studio just experimenting with colour and at the moment using basic elements which is what I am concentrating on to get a body of work together. Anselm Keifer comes to mind (not his scale ) but I just love the rawness of his process.
Jeremy Gardiner’s landscapes interest me as well. So - see lets where it goes.

I am a potter working full time out of my rented studio in Turville.

I am an intuitive potter, relishing every element of the making process. I work on the wheel using stoneware and porcelain making functional pots be they bowls or vases, mugs or jugs. I sell direct from my studio as well as through local events such as HAT.

You start with a lump of clay and knead it through until it’s smooth throughout. This stage is the beginning of the melding between the material and the potter. A good thwack settles the clay on the wheel head and there begins the control and guidance from which a finished pot will emerge.

My shapes are fluid, organic and always to be stroked and held. My glazes are earthy, comforting and quiet. Each one a new beginning, a new creation.

I’m an Oxfordshire potter working from my garden studio, where I also teach regular lessons. I enjoy throwing stoneware and porcelain at the wheel, and occasionally cast and hand-build too. My childhood home was filled with antiques and the Art Deco tea sets and mid-century pots have had a lasting influence on my style. I also take inspiration from nature and like to make functional pieces that have simple and pleasing forms. Clean lines, gentle curves and simplicity in the glazing define my design style. Occasionally I like to make quirky playful pieces too.’
