Isabelle originally studied drawing at Kingston School of Art, where she graduated with a First Class BA (Hons). During this time, her practice naturally began to gravitate toward clay, prompting her to continue her training at the esteemed Clay College in Stoke-on-Trent from 2022 to 2024. After completing her training, Isabelle worked as a pottery technician and tutor at several studios in Bristol, including Bristol Folk House and Zed Alley Clayhouse.In Spring 2025, she was invited to join the Wobage Workshops community, where she now creates from her own studio and supports Jeremy and Petra Steward as a part-time apprentice.​

​
Whether throwing or hand-building, Isabelle approaches her practice with curiosity and a strong sense of play, always seeking to capture a natural, free-flowing energy in her work. Decisive facets and stretched stamp impressions describe the lively trace of her hand, and reflects both the sensitivity and responsiveness that characterises soft clay.

Working primarily in high-fired porcelain and stoneware, Isabelle uses salt-firing to enhance the tactile richness of her surfaces. This technique lends a warm softness and visual depth, amplifying the marks left by her making process.
