Susie is currently focusing on a series of porcelain tiles inspired by the drawings and observations recorded in her sketchbooks.
Each tile is a unique artwork, individually designed and handcrafted. The tiles are fired to 1260°C in an electric kiln, ensuring both strength and durability, before being carefully decorated with coloured glaze. This process allows Susie to achieve a rich interplay of surface, colour and detail, giving every piece its own distinctive character.
Susie trained in ceramics at Cheltenham before embarking on a rewarding career as an art teacher, inspiring students through her passion for creativity and making. Following her teaching career, she established her own ceramics studio, where she continues to develop and refine her distinctive artistic practice.
An established and respected maker, Susie is also the author of 'The Art of Handbuilt Ceramics', published by Crowood Press. She has been a valued member of the Suffolk Craft Society since 1992.
