Deborah works from her studio on her small family farm in the middle of Devon. She works with porcelain and stoneware using hand building and wheel throwing techniques. She generally fires in an electric kiln but sometimes smoke fires in a barrel or utilises redundant equipment from the farm.

She predominantly works with porcelain to create thin vessels that can hold lights and stoneware thrown on the wheel for smoke firing. She loves the versitility of these different clays and the contrasting results that can be achieved, the delicacy of the hand built porcelain compared to the robustness of the smoke fired stoneware.
