Im often asked why I am so passionate about pottery..
This is why…..

When you support an artist, when you choose something handmade, you’re not just supporting a person or a small business.

You’re purchasing a small piece of an artist’s heart.

When you buy something from an artist, you’re buying more than an object.

You’re buying hundreds of hours of errors and experimentation.

You’re buying years of frustration and moments of pure joy.

You’re not just buying a thing.

You’re buying a piece of a heart, a piece of a soul… a small piece of someone else’s life.

It is a great privilege to be able to work with, and I suppose work off, my feelings through clay and my creative process.

“If you know that you’re doing, that’s good enough.”
Warren Buffett

“Nothing bold or magnificent is built from fear.”

Artists, often thought of as the crazy ones, are sometimes the most stable people in the world, because they know exactly what they must do with their lives.

Art can be daring.

Art can be decadent.

Art can be reckless.

Art is everywhere.

And for me, art is how I make sense of being here.

Happy Heritage Day ❤️🇿🇦💚
🇿🇦 Things only a true South African will understand…

🌿 Howzit — hi, hello & how are you all rolled up into one word.

🌿 Yoh — describes good, bad, happy, sad, surprising or shockingly dramatic information.

🌿 Ubuntu — what makes South Africans unique. A way of living, sharing & caring for each other. I am because we are.

🌿 Yebo — yes, but with way more ooomph.

🌿 “Now now” — actually means later, anything between 5 minutes and 5 hours…

🌿 Boerewors rolls/Borrie rolls are NOT the same as a hotdog.

🌿 You call a van or minibus a “kombie” or a “bakkie”.

🌿 Gatvol — there is no equivalent in English to express this emotional word of “I’ve had enough”.

🌿 Haibo — when something seems unbelievable or shocking.

🌿 A braai is a braai — because a BBQ is a chip flavour.

🌿 A mielie — a staple side to any good braai, also known as corn on the cob.

🌿 466-64 — a number that means something to you.

🌿 The word “man” gets added to the end of many sentences.

🌿 Seeing shirtless men out in public with beer boeps and flip flops is normal, especially on rugby match days.

🌿 Chommie — my friend, but with waaaay more gusto.

🌿 Lekker — can mean nice, or can be used as a conversation exit strategy.

🌿 The word “shame” — can be added randomly to the end of any sentence to express a number of various emotions.

I’ll be proudly South African today, tomorrow and every day thereafter. 🇿🇦

Hulle Weet Nie Wat Ons Weet Nie!! 🇿🇦💚

This makes my soul soar…
I’ve reached a new level of busy over the past few
weeks and I’ve loved every minute of it!
Stepping into my 9th year of business with an absolute BANG! There’s no stopping me now…💫

You are entirely up to you and more capable than you think.
So believe the resounding voice within you that confirms this.
It speaks to us all the time, all we need to do is tune in.

As I’ve matured and ‘grown up’ I’ve come to realize the following saying is true -
‘not getting what you want is often a blessing in disguise’.
I’m so happy my life has taken the trajectory it has.
Nothing is ever going to matter as much as my own exquisite heart, ingenious mind, warm soul or restless creative hands.

Only we know how to build the life of our dreams.
Only we can do that.
Build it well, edit it frequently and decorate
it as you please.
With love xoxo

Fun Fact Friday 🌾
Q: Why do you love what you do so much?

Because using my hands heals my soul every day.
I lose myself in my studio, from my time of arrival till
my time of departure. It’s like a capsule of joyful time
standing still.

I immerse my conscious and subconscious into one fluid movement of creation.
There is no definite starting point and no obvious endpoint. There’s just a flow.
My active mind switches off and my excited hands take over and boy oh boy, do they take over.

It feels so familiar to be standing at my workbench,
holding a piece of clay and wondering to myself,
“What will you become, my love?
Where will you go live? Who will you belong to?
How much joy will you radiate?”

Being creative is like coming home,
and home is a sacred place.
This fluid motion and ex*****on comes naturally,
with very little forced effort.
Sometimes it takes time, and sometimes
I’m niggled by some doubt…
But the brilliance shows up like a kind and familiar
friend each time.
Time and time again, it shows up, and for that I’m so grateful.
I do this because waking up and not doing this seems unimaginable to me.

I have to do what I do.
I have to create and explore my creativity.
I have to come ‘home’ to my sacred place and
visit my love and my babies every day,
that’s why ❤️
xoxo
