Ever since I know myself I have been involved in being creative. From a young age I was exposed to clay and was immediately attracted to the material since it offers a broad range of creativity. During my studies I was exposed to ceramic technology which I found fascinating. I carried out in depth research of ceramic materials including color in glazes and firings.
