Ann Mary had the good fortune to attend a secondary school with a pottery and has done work in clay since the age of eleven.  In France this was another renewal with a friend who opened her studio to her and more recently in the context of a local, fantastic potter who opens her facilities and teaching experience to others to work in her space, with her complete assistance.  This has allowed Ann Mary to rediscover pottery and like the others attending this place, to do things she never thought possible.
