Here you can see her at work, usually hand-building, but using a variety of techniques, colours and forms, gilding with gold leaf. Sara also teaches classes and has collected around her the work of several fellow potters, artists and craftspeople, so there is a small gallery to view while drinking coffee or sit on the veranda enjoy the rural lifestyle and watch the farm animals
