Sharon Gibson runs a small pottery studio from her home on Shoreham Beach called Beach Pottery.

Sharon’s interest in ceramics began after attending a pottery class in a local studio a few short years ago. She instantly fell in love with the whole process and it has now become a full time practice.

She enjoys making objects that can be used on a daily basis and each piece is individually and lovingly crafted either on her potter’s wheel or by being hand built.
Every glazing and firing process is a voyage of discovery and forms the uniqueness of each piece. Sharon loves to experiment with clay types and glazing methods.

The charm of Sharon’s work is the simplicity of process and the organic style of her work. She embraces irregularities in shapes and glazes and she dislikes the uniformity of machine processed ceramics
