Ceramics

My ceramics experience has mostly been hand building, sculpting, slabwork and coiling, I used moulds and forms found around the house and kitchen. I attempted  to make these pieces appear as light as possible. I have been learning to use the wheel since November 2022 and realise I need another life time.

I have started to combine hand building with throwing and am using these techniques to create altered forms and figures.

 

Porcelain  Sgraffito vase
My hand-built porcelain pots are inspired by the rocky coastal weathered Devon landscape. They are three dimensional drawings using mark making into the soft clay, creating texture, eroding the surfaces of the pots with sgraffito. These vessels are linked to nature with each pot having individual character. They are used to display dried wildflower seed heads found whilst out walking, helping to concentrate the eye on the tiny intricacies of nature often overlooked for their structural beauty.
