I am a ceramic artist. Sometimes I make mugs and plates but mostly I make sculptures. I use clay to explore my garden and life philosophies. I love the way clay holds my hand marks. All my recent work highlights the malleable nature of clay and its ability to capture gestural marks.
At Half Pint Pottery there is a small pottery school, two studios, mug shop and Half Pint gallery.
The gallery is open most weekends and is full of work made by the resident artists Jo Raill and Aidan Raill. We also host guest ceramic artists/potters several times a year. Check out the website to see what is on.

Graduating from MIT Auckland with a Bachelor of Visual Arts, Jane Thorne has exhibited both locally and internationally. Insects are the dominant feature in her paintings, and she is influenced by earlier years studying museology and more recently, a fascination with old wallpapers and history. The insects are typically arranged to suggest deeper meanings and details to draw the viewer in.
