My name is Susi C. Coveney-Conroy,
I was born in Catalonia of an English mother and Catalan father.
I came to live in Ireland in 1993 where I married an Irishman.

After the birth of our son
I started working with clay, making butter dishes.

As a friend commissioned me for a Butterdish with a sheep on it,
​ I started making more sheep, inspired by my husband´s idea,
“A Piece of Ireland” was born in 2013.

I then started making hand built mugs with sheep on them and this
evolved into throwing stoneware mugs on the potter’s wheel.

I wanted to decorate them with trees, inspired by my morning walks in the
woods of Moycullen and a
 drawing that my mom Christine gave me with
ink drawn trees on it on strip a hand made paper,
so asked mom,  would she draw a few more designs.

 Since we developed a variety of designs, always related to nature and Ireland,
after mom's passing I started Art classes in my friend
​Leonie Sutton´s Art Studio, ¨Tall Tree Cottage¨ near Mountbellew,
and I am loving every minute of it.
