Naomi Ameyaw is one of our tutors in the Harley Pottery Studio.

I’ve been working as a ceramist since 2020, throwing and handcrafting all kinds of pots in my home shed-udio down at the bottom of my garden. I’m often assisted in my studio by my Dog – Smudge or my three chickens – Pumpkin, Tallulah and Buttercup.

I have always had a passion for art and all things handmade and after learning the art of ceramics during my university degree I knew this was a craft I wanted to pursue further.

Working with clay feels right. The way a ball of earth can be transformed into a beautiful object that can last forever is incredibly magical to me.

Naomi’s work takes inspiration from nature and the seasons, she is currently working on a collection of forms decorated with sgraffito illustrations.
