Jane Newton

Studio Potter

Potting Mad Pottery

Jane started her love affair with clay in London in 1969, where she was taught by a master potter. This was continued at Midland Tafe where her skills were consolidated by Jenny Knox Millar-Nixon and Lyn Graham, both hills potters.

She has won numerous awards for her large bowls and vessels and inspires her pupils to
make unique beautiful creations.

Her passion is reflected in both her small exquisitely slipped bowls and the huge beautifully crafted jars, vessels and bowls that take hours to throw, glaze and fire. Her glazes encompass the deep blues of the ocean and terracotta, the richness of the red earth of Sawyers Valley.
