About The Artwork

An attractive, arty little pot that could add a vibrant splash of colour to any room or collection. I made this piece several years ago from buff earthenware/stoneware clay, it's roughly made and originally with a crawling glossy glaze interior and a pale blue exterior, I thought the result to be quite boring so I set the piece to one side. Years later I mixed some crystal glazes and felt free to experiment, I had nothing to loose, so I went to work on the piece using thick impasto like glaze and put it on with a trowel like tool then fired it for a third time. I was pleasantly surprised by the result, the crazing of the glaze and exaggerated 3d effect it gave the pot, so I went on to apply the technique to several other smaller pieces. Please be aware this piece is decorative rather than functional. It is NEITHER WATERTIGHT NOR FOOD SAFE. It is very naive in the making being thick, heavy, and generally clunky, however, it is a very attractive piece the exterior now far more joyful. It might also be suitable for collectors looking to find early work from Artists, as this is piece No.117 (P.117)

This section includes: CARE & SAFETY GUIDELINES. There are 3 mains strands to Barbara's work: large bowls, flattened shapes and small pots. She is constantly experimenting with new materials, tools and techniques to produce new and interesting work. she works alone in her studio making each piece by hand from start to finish. Consequently some pieces may feature small imperfections consistent with and characteristic of this method of making, in some cases her work is about as far away as you can get from perfectly formed factory production pieces. Each piece is signed, numbered and dated on the base making it unique and collectable. All original drawings and paintings will now be signed on the back, but Limited Editions will be signed on the front. From the 1st January 2020 all work sold through Saatchiart.com will come with a Certificate of Authenticity. At the risk of appearing presumptuous, Thank You notes will now be enclosed when sending work to avoid delay or loss. As you know it's worth keeping them, as they add provenance to the work, should you decide to sell at some future stage. (CARE and SAFETY GUIDELINES) CARE: Please wipe work with a lint free cloth or well rung-out sponge. On larger pieces, furniture protection pads have been added, which will need replacing from time to time and can be purchased readily from hardware stores. SPECIAL CARE: Designs such as; Italian Decay, Cassata, Crystals, and Relics, should NOT be submerged in water or have water/liquid put into them, this may discolour the pot or possibly flood and discolour your furniture. They are very much decorative items NOT functional ones. SPECIAL CARE should be taken around large heavy flattened shapes, as they are often made on the edge of what's physically possible, which might make them unstable in certain conditions; such as children crawling around a floor, in cases such as this the piece should be REMOVED for reasons of SAFETY. PLEASE NOTE: Barbara's work is NOT: dishwasher, microwave, oven, fridge, freezer or food/liquid safe. With an ever increasing range of glaze ingredients being listed as toxic with regard to food/liquids, I'm glad that I took the decision from the outset never to claim any of my work is either food/liquid safe and still maintain that position. It is Not really suitable for outdoors, this would be entirely at your own risk.
