Handmade Ceramics
Each piece unique and made by hand.
Inspired by nature
I find my inspiration from my garden, the seasons and walks with my dog.
Unique ceramic pieces Inspired by nature, made by hand
Hi, my name is Natasha. I live in Melbourne, Australia with my husband, two teenage sons and our Bordoodle, Coco.
My pottery journey began at 8 years of age with classes at my local community centre in Sydney. Soon after I joined Gran, a wonderful family friend with a magical laugh, for lengthy weekend sessions making our own clay and hand building whimsical creations. My early repertoire – including native animals, roast chicken dinners, bush shacks, trinket pots and avocado serving dishes – found homes on the shelves of family and friends.
Decades later, after becoming a mother, I rediscovered my passion for clay. Despite moving many times pottery is my constant and I now have the time and space to share my individually crafted creations with others. I work in my sun-kissed studio, accompanied by my dog, Coco and surrounded by the native and exotic flora that inspires my work. It brings me so much joy to weave the uniqueness and beauty of nature into every one of my pieces.
