Each of my owls has its own unique character!
This hoot has been decorated with distressed gesso and acrylic inks before a final coat of beeswax. All perched on gimlets and reclaimed table leg plinths.

WIP A similar scene to ChS Candlesticks today-making a mess of the kitchen table! First time working with terracotta, I’m enjoying all these new experiences, not sure about this clay yet but felt it could be a good base colour for Theo’s cat, swipe to see his drawing…

Bear’s expression sums it all up!
This painted ceramic piece is based on a drawing that one of my sons did in his early years as an example of a consumer and predator. Swipe to see the drawing. I just love his expression and its simplicity. I’ve made his teeth from reclaimed aluminium

My first Raku on Friday was a great experience, nerve-racking, smoky and exciting! It was suggested I make something small and smooth. I made some owls of course but also found these old rusty callipers (bird heads) which needed bodies. The Raku glaze was slapped on, and in just an hour or two, some great teamwork and over 1000 degrees, this technicolour range of colours emerged. Such an interesting process thank you Kat Kat and Jonathan Johnathan Franklin for organising it.
