My Latest Show. Birds inspired by 16c Majolica ware and a new red glaze

I use a mid fire (cone 6) stoneware and decorate in a majolica style. I use slips and stains to paint on top of the glaze. I use cobalt for my blues, copper for my greens, iron for the browns and rutile for the beige.

My sister Mary and I had an exhibition in homage to our mum at Uplands in Lennoxville. The exhibition featured pots decorated with "ducky" little animals and images close to her heart. Mary's paintings depicted scenes mum loved. An homage to a splendid woman.
