Lizzie is a Designer-Maker, with an experimental approach to ceramics, having developed new process which combines digital technology and traditional hand-building techniques.
As much as we’re expected to somehow portray a degree of seriousness in our work she is unwilling to grow up and accept this, instead she’ll pretend. Lizziesimpson.co.uk
As well as a keen ceramicist she also draws and paints day to day things on her blog: Lizsimp.tumblr.com

She also promotes and surports British crafters through her website: CraftBritain.co.uk (Which she should probably update more often) and her Twitter Account (which she should probably update less.)
