Dee Barnes

Cat 9

£120.00

A quirky Cat sculpture which can be used as a candle holder if desired.. with slip and underglazes.

Dee has been working with clay for over 40 years, she is a studio potter based in Grantham, where she creates hand-built ceramics using earthenware clay and favouring traditional techniques including coiling and slab building. Each piece is decorated using underglazes, slips and gold lustre resulting in intricate and narrative designs, crafting one-of-a-kind pieces.

Embracing a naïve painterly style, Dee finds inspiration in the simplicity and charm of traditional folk art, Staffordshire figurines and the Georgian era.

Dee's creative process is guided by intuition, allowing the clay to dictate its own path and the shape of each piece to influence its decoration. This organic approach infuses a sense of spontaneity and authenticity into her work, resulting in pieces that possess both artistic allure and functional appeal.
