I was born in Hanoi, Vietnam and moved to Melbourne in 2007. I started to collect ceramics pieces from some local Australian artists about nine years ago and that's how I found my interest in clay!

I spend my night times mostly creating my ceramics pieces by using hand-building techniques such as coiling, slabbing and carving. I have been working with different kinds of clay such as earthenware, stoneware and porcelain, however, stoneware, in particular, interests me because of it's durable and dense stone-like quality.

I love making vessels! Each of them is unique and not identical, just like us - carries our own beauty!

Linh was an amazing teacher. So patient, thoughtful and talented. Her skills shone through and guidance was just was a couple of novices needed. The venue and space where the class was held was comfortable and peaceful. The service provided was great and topped off nicely with a glass of Prosecco!
Highly recommend Linh’s class.
