I design
and create one-off ceramic sculptures of people, - some with humorous qualities,
all of which capture the observed essence of human behaviour. They depict
an extensive selection of mannerism and characters. Each piece is
hand made. The pieces are made using Earthstone crank clay, glazed and
fired in electric kiln to 1250 ºC.
All pieces
are unique in both form and personality.
Inspiration
stems from observing people around me - during everyday life, during holidays,
concerts, meetings, and during travel.
I am not
a full-time artist. I work full time as a Technical Consultant
for a company called the Building Research Establishment. During weekends
I am a full-time artist and I love my busy weekends because I really enjoy
making ceramic sculpture. Hopefully this pleasure will be conveyed
to the collector who will have many years of joy from their pieces.
I
am a member of the Scottish potters Association and Glasgow Society of
Women Artists. In Scotland my work was exhibited in Hutcheson’s Hall (The
National Trust for Scotland), The Peter Potter Gallery (Haddington), Flat
Cat Gallery (Lauder), The Leith Gallery (Edinburgh), Hanover Fine Arts
(Edinburgh), Scotlandart.com, Collins Gallery (Glasgow), Compass Gallery
(Glasgow), The Nancy Smillie Gallery (Glasgow), Just Scottish Gifts (Edinburgh)
and other galleries.
