Thrown & Altered Blue Platter by Barry Stedman
£297.00
A wheel thrown red earthenware platter, marked and altered, scored and handled, before being painted with layers of coloured slips and oxides. Washes of vivid colour are enhanced with a bright rich clear glaze.
The platter is then offered to the kiln in an open dialogue of transformation; fired to 1100ºc and infused with the marks, rhythm and energy of it's making.

"My intention as a ceramic artist is to make colourful, dynamic forms that come out of a deep connection to the landscape. Often my work is rooted in the directness and urgency of drawing outside; responding to the weather, drama, and life which surrounds my garden studio by the river Flit in Bedfordshire." - Barry Stedman
