  • Embracing wonkiness builds creative confidence, says artist Amy Davis

    Embracing wonkiness builds creative confidence, says artist Amy Davis
    Feb 17 2026

    Host: Jerome Whittingham

    Artist Amy Davis is on a quest to help people embrace wonkiness and imperfection in their creative pursuits.

    She’s recently been using some mini potters wheels, and making tiny wonky pots. She explains how these ‘toy’ potters wheels are helping her and others to learn to play with clay again, building creative confidence.

    "It’s about celebrating imperfection and all that it’s about. Your creativity doesn’t haver to be perfect, because the moment things become too perfect or people overthink their creative process, that’s when people tend to step away. And I think a lot of the time it’s education, when we were younger, that makes us think that creativity is a scary thing. When in actual fact, if more people were able to embrace the joys of creativity for what it is, rather than perfectionism, I feel that’s when people will get more out of the process," says Amy Davis.

    Amy’s now looking to extend her Wonky Pot Initiative, and is looking to partner with venues and organisations in North Staffordshire to help her bring the fun of wonky creativity to more people.
