I’m Gemma, and I started pottery in 2021 with hand building lessons in a private studio in Whitby.
Then, in 2022 I took up wheel classes here at the Otaki Pottery Club, where I have since become a member of the club and an active part of this amazing ceramic art community.

I have also spent many, many years crocheting and sewing. Check out @crochetshiz on insta for more.

I hail from chilly Invercargill but have been living in sunny Kāpiti for the past 4 years via a small stint in Melbourne and 2 years in London.

I love using pastel, neutral, and natural colours that look lovely in people’s homes and pretty in their hands. I like to experiment with techniques like using sand and stains in my work.
