Cathy is a warm and generous teacher, sharing what she has learned and offering her extensive expertise in raku methods with participants. Many people arrive at workshops feeling unsure and tentative or simply saying “I’m not creative – I don’t know where to start”. Cathy gently encourages them all to make a start - to get in touch with the clay, shape it, mould it and begin to give it a new life.
In many ways, she offers people a safe place to express themselves and permission to let the child within play and have a bit of fun. Participants leave feeling thrilled, excited and exhilarated at their creations – made with their own hands and with creativity sparked from within themselves. They often go away able to tell a new story about themselves: “Actually, I can be creative”.
Cathy’s style and approach to familiarising people with clay and what it can do, simplifying the process and then letting them feel their way, produces the magical transitions that make these workshops such special events.
Cathy provides an amazing atmosphere of encouragement and advice to produce a fabulous piece of clay sculpture .The studio is inspirational and provides the most wonderful place to enjoy your day

Loved the Bathing Beauties workshop. Cathy is very encouraging and helpful and, for a beginner, I learned a lot of techniques in clay sculpture. I will definitely do another workshop with Cathy. They are good value and fun.

Wonderful time at the magpies workshop. I have done a few other workshops with Cathy in the past and have always found them enjoyable and Cathy a wealth of knowledge and patience. Skills learnt can be transferred to other projects. Looking forward to my next workshop.

On Saturday I attended a Inner Goddess Workshop at Fried Mudd in Noosaville. It was a fantastic day with an amazing group of ladies. We all had different ideas of what we wanted to achieve for the day and with a block of clay and amazing support and guidance from Cathy our goddess's came to life. It was definitely a peaceful and productive day. Thanks so much Cathy x
