This Sunday November 16th, 12 - 5pm I am having a workshop sale at Kroloftet. I am moving to a new workshop at Sagene. More on that later; sad to leave but excited for a change. Over the past (nearly) 3 years in Oslo I have tested a lot of new clays and designs, now it's time to clear out the samples and seconds at heavily reduced prices. Bartering encouraged:)

How many spouts can a jug have… 1, 2, 3, or perhaps 4? Well, come and find out at Kirkerista Kunsthåndverksmarked this Thursday - Saturday in central Oslo. I have cups, breakfast plates and bowls too, all with a pinch of sand - from Lake Tekapo in NZ and Hvasser in Norway, to Grindavik in Iceland + new vases.

This is an annual event with high quality handcrafted objects - this year 88 mostly Norwegian artists participate. Hope to see you there!

Kunsthåndverksmarkedet i Kirkeristen, 21-23 Aug 2025, Thurs/Fri 11-19, Sat 11-17.

Hello! Excited to have a small summer exhibition at Brudd Kunsthåndverk 19 - 26 June, in Grünerløkka, Oslo. If you’re in the neighbourhood, pop by for a glass of wine Thursday 19th June at 6pm to celebrate the opening, I’d love to see you there!

I'll be showing new sculptural vases in new clay colours, and my 'sand research' series, where I continue to add a pinch of sand to clay I've collected from different locations in New Zealand and now Norway, like Svalbard, Nakholmen, Huk and in the kiln right now, samples from Hvasser, and Devlebukta in Trondheim.

Brudd is a small artist run gallery featuring jewellery, glass and ceramics by artists based in the Oslo region. It’s been around for 40 years, a gem in the middle of Grünerløkka; Markveien 42, open Tues - Sat, 12 - 6pm.

Excited to open the doors to the ceramic studio where I work at this weekend for Oslo Open, looking like a perfect day for it ☀️ Saturday 26 April, 12 - 5pm, Arnijot Gellines vei 41, big green building, 1st floor.

Oslo Open is not a tennis tournament 😁 It's an annual event where Oslo artists open up their studios for the public to see how they work. This year over 450 artists are participating - on Saturday April 26, studios located east of Akerselva (the river that runs through Oslo) and on Sunday, studios to the west of the river. Find maps and artist details at https://osloopen.no I would love to show you around, velkommen!

2024 has zoomed by - without a single post! It’s been an eventful year, more on that another time - right now I want to share I’ve just become a member of the artist run gallery Brudd in Oslo. Thrilled. It’s a great little gallery in Grünerløkka. Tomorrow I'll be there 12 - 4pm, why don’t you come and explore my new I Love You teapot? …and many more ceramic, glass and jewellery treasures. Markveien 42A, Open Mon - Fri 12 - 6pm, Sat 11 - 4pm and Sun 2 - 6pm.

But wait, there is more! We have opened a shop at Kroloftet, the studio where I work, open Thurs 12 - 7pm and Sat/Sun 12 - 5pm until Christmas, brimming with cool stuff made by creatives at Kroloftet. Arnljot Gellines Vei 41.

There you go, ALL your Christmas gifts, locally made, sorted in two stops, the rest of December you can just lie on the sofa, just imagine! See you around :)

Delighted to announce you can find my work at Norway Designs, a beautiful homeware store with Norwegian & Nordic design and handcrafted objects in Lille Grensen 7 in Oslo. An old time favourite of mine, honoured to be on their shelves. Do pop by.

There’s been a lot of trials and studio experiments in the past few months. Tomorrow, Sunday Oct 22, I’m a part of Marked på Kruttverket, selling off a lot of… charming pieces at good prices. Put on your woollies and head to Kruttverket, Arnljot Gellines vei 41, and while you’re there, stop by for a treat in the cafe too. 12.00 - 17.00, see you!

This week I’ll be part of two shows at once, literally on either side of the world. The creatures are back (and more) as part of ‘All Sorts’ this week at Thistle Hall, alongside a fabulous group of 8 potters/ceramic artists from Wellington and the Kapiti Coast. Summerstone Gallery in Paraparaumu looks after my work in New Zealand now, and included me in a fab line-up. On at Thistle Hall until Sunday August 13th: 11am - 7.30pm (Thurs/Fri) 10 - 4pm (Sat), 10 - 1.30 (Sun). You don’t want to miss it!

In Oslo I’m busy making for Kunsthåndverkmarkedet på Kirkerista, a big artist fair in the middle of Oslo August 17 - 19. It’s my first market in Norway, excited to see how my work will be received. I will have a range of small vases available and also little porcelain jugs with sand collected from local beaches (Huk, Ingierstrand, Opera stranda) ingrained in the clay. If you are in Oslo, please stop by for a chat! 11 - 19 (Thurs/Fri), 11 - 17 (Sat). Cheerio
