About Charlie

Having grown up in Sussex, Charlie has lived in the Buxted/Uckfield area for most of her life, currently living in Uckfield with her family which consists of her husband, son and three step sons (not forgetting Squiffy the deaf cat, and Saffy her (non)friend!).

In 2007 Charlie started the journey to become a secondary school Maths teacher and qualified in 2009. Over the next 12 years she worked in a variety of schools and thoroughly enjoyed working with young people, working to improve their confidence in what can often be seen as a challenging subject.

Charlie left the teaching profession in December 2021 and now enjoys spending time in her garden studio developing her practice and exploring the endless possibilities afforded by clay and different methods of firing. She has not left education behind completely, as she still works with young people as a private Maths Tutor when she is not in the studio.

In June 2022 Charlie made the decision to start selling some of her work, and has taken part in a number of different events including the Bridge Cottage Markets (Uckfield), South East Open Studios, Artwave, Art in Ditchling and an exhibition as a guest artist at Chalk Gallery in Lewes.
