In late 2023, I was approached to make porcelain birds for a hotel located in the heart of Sydney, Australia. I was overseas at the time, but the public art consultants and their client were happy to wait until I got home. I spent 3 and half months researching and making 22 birds based on the wallpaper in a new restaurant aptly called @birdiebarandbrasserie and the interiors of the hotel’s entrance. See previous post for the restaurant’s inspired wallpaper. I can now reveal that @novotelsydneycity are the proud owners of my artworks. Keep an eye out as I’ll reveal the birds soon in their new home. Portrait of me by Andrew Sikorski @art_atelier_photo . Dress from London @andotherstories

I’m a little excited as recently I had a new pub

I’m a little excited as recently I had a new public artwork installed in a hotel in the heart of Sydney’s City Centre. The wallpaper seen here was chosen for the interior of a newly launched restaurant and provided inspiration for the interior design team to engage me to create two new bodies of work. Watch this space as I roll out what I made and where they are located. I do love a slow reveal ☺️.

On my way back from Sydney I found this beautiful

On my way back from Sydney I found this beautiful book with almost bird life size photographs/illustrations that simply took my breath away. As soon as I opened it, I knew I had to have it. Sometimes a book just resonates. This one is the perfect resource as I’m embark on making more porcelain birds and highlighting the inevitable loss of these creatures from land and human impact 🤍.

This was taken in the back streets of Newtown, Sydney. I love the yellow against the deep blue sky. I’m heading to Sydney soon for a flying visit to deliver a long piece of wall artwork sold through @galleryofsmallthingscbr, check out my own artwork @ampmceramics which has now been installed and have a girlies catch-up with a dear friend in the city.

I’ve been busy doing online classes and enjoying

I’ve been busy doing online classes and enjoying the @gerrywedd masterclass. I’m trying to get back on track and focus on my practice.

The classes are run by the @australianceramics Association. While I bought this session back in 2022, what I love is I can still access it and pace myself listening, making and not take myself too seriously!

You can see my vase is nowhere near Gerry’s shape but I’m giving it a go! I highly recommend being a member in order to access these masterclasses. So worth it!

Also, just after I made this, we headed to @nationalmuseumofaustralia and I spied a fabulous jar in the ‘Discovering Ancient Egypt’ exhibition. It’s from the 2nd to 4th century and an ‘ … example of coarse-ware pottery that Nubian people at Spokane used every day …”. I hope mine lasts the firing process first ☺️.

Ceramics at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London

Ceramics at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London. All I can say is, I had to visit twice and still couldn’t fit in the vast collections the V&A have on display.

I’ve written a travel story about ceramics on the 4th floor of the V&A along with images of contemporary to historic vessels, colours from white to yellow, and so much more.
