MARY STEPHENS
"Smiling from within" series
I’m an artist, potter and Yoga teacher. I studied Fine Art Sculpture at Bretton Hall (College of Leeds University). On returning home to Herefordshire from university I trained as an apprentice potter to Jonathan and Melaine Hughes-Jones at Pembridge Terracotta.
I came back to creating work about six years ago and work from a small studio in North Herefordshire. I love working in clay either on the wheel or hand building. I feel very lucky to be able to combine working with clay, making and creating, with teaching yoga. They both benefit and feed into each other.
Each of these pieces is a one off original - hand made by pinching out clay and sculpting. They are all stoneware except for the yoga posed piece which is porcelain. The wings are paper and fabric.
