Jan Tomei Ceramics
I had worked in International Banking in the City of London for many years and in 1995  I decided to leave. I had had more than my share of 7:30 breakfast meetings and late nights. Initially I enrolled on a City and Guilds Pottery course and then undertook a three-year, full-time Ceramics degree course at Camberwell College graduating in 2000. I was fortunate enough to be offered an evening & weekend teaching role at Camberwell and thoroughly enjoyed passing my love of working with clay on to the students. 
My work must have texture of some kind. Either by the use of sodium silicate. Ceramics is a discipline that allows such a variety of work and I don’t think I have time left in my life to explore all clay can offer. All I know is that this ‘mud stuff’ is key to my life.
