Sally has an Arts degree with a Fine Arts major from Sydney University and has studied Creative Arts (sculpture) at Wollongong University; she has both Fine Arts and Ceramic certificates from TAFE and a Graphic Design qualification. She has been working as a graphic designer for many years. Prior to this she was a studio potter in Jamberoo producing handpainted earthenware.
