I learned Ceramic design
    as a profession in Germany,
    and have been practicing and
    teaching pottery for 38 years
    in Botswana.

    I eventually specialized in
    Raku pottery, an ancient
    technique that allows fire and
    smoke to enter into the
    crackling glaze and temper
    each vessel in organic materials
    from Mother Earth.


    I compliment this look with
    traditional local patterns and
    images of our precious wildlife.

    We also use specific earthy
    glazes, harbouring a multitude
    of shades within itself.
    There are no harsh, flat or
    extremely glossy looks in
    Nature.
