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.
What a fabulous day at Cathy's Fried Mud workshop! Such an informed day making Guinea fowl! I learned a lot and had fun which is what I came for and I have wetted my appetite for more. Thank you so much Cathy for your expert help.

A great workshop Cathy. Thanks to your attention and assistance everyone achieved the goal of making a bathing beauty - even those who were new to clay. I'll definitely come to another workshop.

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

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

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.

Hi guys, i would like to suggest some feedback on pricing. $220 to make a cow seems extreme especially in todays climate. Is there any chance you can make these classes more affordable for everyone. I would love to bring some of my clients here but all the feedback has been $$$ which is a real shame.
