Artist's Statement
I make functional slipware, a range of platters, jugs, bowls etc. - oven to table ware in small series all made to serve. I also accept commissions to make commemorative pieces for weddings, christenings etc. There is a strong emphasis on decoration in my work and am continuing to explore repeat patterns using paper resist. Work usually available from:
Gallery Maison du Gisant – Rue du l’horloge, 22100 Dinan, France My Workshop Technical Information
I use Earthenware (clay de Provence/valentines mix). The work is thrown and altered, decorated with layers of coloured slips which are dipped, sponged and slip trailed. The pieces are raw-glazed. The work is fired in a gas kiln 1100°c
