Stephanie’s interest in ceramics came from her
training as a ceramic restorer. She broadened her knowledge through classes in pottery and decorative finishes. For a few years she ran a design company mainly specialising in mirrors and decorative household items. Harrods and Jane Churchill were amongst her customers. She also ran classes in plaster casting, gilding and paint finishes and is the author of the book Creative Plasterwork. She has since returned to her work as a restorer and uses her love of clay to make beautiful dishes, decorating them using gilding and variety of other techniques. Mainly using paper clay, she gets her inspiration from nature, forming shapes that are organically based. Believing that nature produces wonderful shapes and forms, she has begun to add moulds of seed heads taken from plants and trees, thus emphasising the natural feel of her work. PLEASE NOTE HER WORK IS FOR DECORATIVE USE ONLY. |
