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.
Well worth the trip from Brisbane. A very pleasant and informative day playing with mud. Cathy shares her extensive knowledge without question.

This is my 4th or 5th workshop with Cathy and every time is a wonderful new experience. I learn so much, the atmosphere is calm and relaxed and her new studio is homey. I also love when we all sit together for lunch, another great part to the day. There is lots to learn and take in while creating your own personal masterpiece.I have attended on my own and with a friend, I highly recommend her workshops. You walk away feeling a deeply accomplished. Thank you Cathy

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.
