Staffordshire based ceramicist Vivienne Ross specialises in slip decorated earthenware.
She makes contemporary ceramics that combine hand-processes such as press-moulding, coiling and throwing with a love of illustration. The pieces are decorated using coloured slips, paper stencils, brushwork and sgraffito
“My interest lies in making pots, which act as a container for both objects and ideas. The shapes are kept simple and made using hand-processes such as press-moulding, coiling and slabbing. With a restricted palette of colours and figures I work intuitively and spontaneously... The figurative decoration, often described as dreamlike, is achieved using brushwork, stencils and sgraffito.” - Vivienne Ross
