  • “Juz is a natural and intuitive teacher and gracious host. The course content was comprehensive and inspiring, but not overwhelming. The feedback from Juz was insightful and individualised, allowing each student to build on their skill set with confidence and joy.

    - Jennifer Lawrence, South Coast, Australia

  • "All of it was fabulous.. I felt so pampered. I really appreciated the demos and I’m so pleased that I have recordings to refer to when needed. The demos were clear and informative ... so many great techniques to bring into my art practice."

    — Kath Egan, Murwillumbah, Northern Rivers

  • "The highlight for me was the demystification of the creative process. It felt like Juz was sharing a cheat-sheet of both technical and conceptual skills that she had obviously developed over many years of practice. As a casually practicing artist, it was personally inspiring to see the depth of her skills and hear anecdotal stories of the trials and tribulations of being an artist."

    — Liz McCrystal, Moruya Heads NSW

  • "Dear Juz, thank you so much for the brilliant and unforgettable workshops. The workshop was run so professionally and generously. The skills and advice are immediately transferable to the classroom and just so inspirational. You were so hospitable. It was such a treat to work in your own space and I just want you to know I think this has been the most enjoyable, artistic experience ever. Thank you so much!"

    — Jennifer May, Sydney, Australia

  • "I had a wonderful experience at the workshop. It was a great opportunity to spend time learning new skills and useful creative tips from Juz. She was so generous in her teaching and sharing of expert knowledge as well as being great hosts. I felt very cared for and encouraged to create rather than mimic her style. We all came away with something exciting to take home and a better appreciation of Juz’ practice. I highly recommend this friendly, supportive workshop to complete beginners and advanced practitioners as there are plenty of demonstrations plus one on one time for each participant. Fabulous weekend, thank you!"

    — Julie William, Sydney/Hill End

  • “Juz demonstrates her masterful skills to guide her students on how to push the boundaries of porcelain and highlight its potentially endless creative possibilities. Juz actively seeks to awaken, stimulate and nurture the creative potential of each one of her students. Juz is incredibly inspiring. It is impossible not to leave feeling empowered, inspired and grateful to have got an insight into the extraordinary practice of her work.”

    — Grace Limond, Sydney, Australia
