Dianne is drawn to clay for those magical moments when nothing exists,  but an idea and the clay and skills needed to make that idea a reality. In 1994  Dianne set up a studio next door to the family home where she began developing  her incised glaze stoneware vessels. Her work is thrown, hand-built and slip-cast and often highly decorated with leaf or line patterns. The functional work, fired  to stoneware temperatures, is intended for daily enjoyment in the home.
