Welcome to Maryhill Clayworks, a small pottery and sculpture studio
that sits on the edge of a dairy farm where I grew up. I’m a
classically trained figurative sculptor now working in pottery. I
eagerly await the Art Trail weekends as I throw open my light
filled studio to share the abundance. Please come. Bring a friend,
bring ten.
