Hello, I’m Tilley! Opening the studio was a bit of a U turn in my career. With a degree in Music, Theatre and Entertainment Management and a background in festivals and events, creativity and community have always been at the heart of what I do. Growing up amidst the magic of Glastonbury Festival, I was inspired by some of the best creatives in the world. My love for pottery runs deep—my mum, Jane Scott, MA (Hons), has been a ceramicist for over 20 years - so there has always been a pottery studio where we live that I would love spending time in. Jane’s current studio is studio 9 at Lancefield Studios.

Starting Pickwick Pottery Painting felt like a natural step, and I wanted the space to feel comfortable, cozy, and colourful. I’m mindful about the pottery items in the studio, focusing on timeless, functional homeware—things you’ll actually use, not leave gathering dust on a shelf. Some of the colours are handmade right here in the studio, as I love getting involved in the process. You’ll also find my mum’s beautiful handmade love hearts, ready for you to decorate.
