Pottery to be used
Posted by Debbie Morgan on
Most of my work is utilitarian, functional pottery, made to be used. I have made a lot of mugs and drinking vessels over the years. You choose the shape and size for the occasion to what you are going to have - a small expresso, a large cuppa tea or a at white. The cup should add to the moment!
A plate should be more than a delivery surface, the wow factor before eating and the mind game of where the food ends and the art begins!
Fruit bowls are just awesome to make and are all function and a work of art too.
And everyone should have a collection of jugs, whether small, medium, large, short, skinny or tall shapes. Everyone needs a handmade pottery jug, even if its just to put the flowers in!
