I am a self-employed ceramic artist and life coach living in Findhorn, Morayshire. I found my passion for clay coincidentally whilst attending a 3-months-long arts programme in Findhorn, Scotland in 1995. Originally trained as a photographer and social worker, the discovery of a passion for working with clay initiated a big life and career change and subsequently my move from Germany to the Findhorn Community in 1996 where I still live. My passion for clay turned into working professionally as a ceramicist and artist in 2004, in my own studio "Claysongs Ceramics" since 2013.
I have a passion for singing Georgian polyphony, and co- lead the local Georgian singing group Bukhari. I love walks in nature and dips in the sea all year round and engage in various ways in community life.
Creativity has changed my life. Art was for artists I thought. But the creative potential lives in all of us at all times. Giving myself permission to be creative and play was life changing.
I am passionate about uncovering enjoyable creative gateways to a deeper place of wellbeing in myself and help others to do the same.
