Indebted to my family roots and committed to great design I have over 25 years experience working in ceramics.
With my vision and a passion for creating beautiful pieces, educating and inspiring others to find their creative style and abilities is my aspiration.
Each piece I make is crafted by hand whilst exploring the limitations of clay and it's organic forms.
With my passion to inspire others class activities are designed to open your creative abilities. Students are encouraged to establish their own unique direction and style.

Miranda is an amazing teacher! We had a great evening learning the ins and outs of hand building under Miranda's watchful and helpful eye. 10/10 would recommend and will be back to do more classes!

Miranda is an amazing teacher. She is very patient and is open to teach any techniques for you to create your own masterpiece! The space is great and the community is very friendly. BIg plus is the cutest puppy on site!

The teacher, Miranda, was very helpful, informative and friendly. Other participants in the class were relaxed, friendly and inclusive of my friend and I (newbies). The studio was warm on a very cold day and equipment was plentiful. The Hand Building and Sculptural Ceramic Workshop allowed me to fully focus. As I have inflammatory arthritis the class was a great activity for low impact exercise of my hands and fingers. I enjoyed making a few small pots and then a water pot brush holder and palette for watercolour.

Enjoyed my pottery class, our teacher was welcoming and fun. The venue was a bit tight on space but was explained to us that it was a full class the night we attended. Will be going back for more clay fun.

Great venue, the class had a mix of return students and new ones like me, everyone very friendly and Miranda did a skillful job of attending to us all over the course of the class. Came awsy with lots of ideas.
