I love the creativity of ceramic artist Patricia Shone who produces a wonderful range of beautifully textured Raku fired pieces.
Not only are the pieces made from the land, the clay sourced from beneath the ground, but the artist explains on her website how the land she lives within has inspired the forms and textures of her pieces. There are further examples of her ceramic pieces on the website and details of where they are currently being exhibited.
Like many landscapes, the variations in form and relief, contrasting textures and muted colours of these pieces mean that they are revealed in different ways with changing mood and light.
thanks for this Gavin, I just came across it. Lovely blog too, so I’m very glad to have found it. lots of similar themes going on.
Hi Patricia. Glad you stumbled across the blog, and pleased to read you like it. Look forward to seeing more of your wonderful work. G
