THE POTTERY WORKSHOP

With 2 large gas pottery kilns,

large electric pottery kilns

& small electric pottery kilns,

we are always firing freshly made

pottery to sell from our Gallery.

Each piece of pottery we make, is all hand crafted & individually unique.

We use a wide variety of pottery clay's including earthenware, stoneware, porcelain, terracotta, raku with trachite
& hand building pottery clay's.

All have their own wonderful characteristic properties.
By using a wide range of clay's we can create a wonderful range

of individually unique pottery.

The Pottery Workshop also

has a large area that is devoted
to hand built pottery.
All pottery that is not made using a pottery wheel is made here.
The old bush buildings, wall hangings, pottery animals, swag men, functional pottery decorated with Australian native flora & fauna, pottery flowers, terracotta herb tags, fairy houses,

whimsical & fun designs, scented clay's
& so many other wonderful
pottery delights.
The workshop also has
4 pottery wheels.

We prefer to make all our pottery individually by hand,
choosing not to use moulds.

We have proudly been selling

100% locally made arts & crafts

Takura, Hervey Bay in 1991.

I have always loved to have
my hands in the dirt.....
either creating something in clay or
potting around in the garden!

I have been a professional
potter since 1985.
I began selling my pottery to many pottery shops around the
Sydney region, where I lived.
From The Rocks in the heart of Sydney
to Galleries & Pottery Shops in
the Blue Mountains & Berrima.
My pottery always has a unique Australian element to it.

Because of this, my pottery has always been admired by locals &
international tourists alike.

I was asked to put on the first exhibition of my pottery at a prime location in Sydney when I was 15.

After moving to Hervey Bay,

on Queensland's Fraser Coast,

I continued to supply many
pottery shops & Galleries.
I also supplied many of
Australia's major Tourist Attractions.

Since 1991 I have been making pottery

for our Art & Craft Gallery here at Takura, Hervey Bay.

Surrounded by
beautiful gardens

& the Australian Bush,

inspiration & new creative
ideas come easily.
