My name is Diane Stirling (Di) and I work under the name of Di Stirling Pottery. I was first introduced to working with clay when my children were 8 months and 2.5 years old in the early 80s. It has been my love and passion since then.
I completed a three-year Associate Diploma in Ceramics with a fine art component in 1986 and went on to do a one-year residency at the NT Crafts Council followed by having a piece acquired in the Northern Territory Museum of Arts and Sciences permanent collection.
I have since completed a degree in Business Management with an Assessment and Workplace Training module and conducted many pottery classes for children and adults. I just love working with clay and love to share the experience, knowledge, joy and satisfaction that comes with playing with clay.
