An introduction to the beauty of porcelain and slip casting in 2016 re-ignited a passion in ceramics for Felicity that had started in the early 1980’s, and now finds her working full time as a ceramic artist from her purpose-built studio.
Felicity’s background as a landscape designer is evident in the handmade decals which she uses to create pattern and texture representing the natural environment.
She prefers to work with porcelain to create fine slip cast ceramics, that start out as original wheel thrown or hand-built artworks.
Combining all her creative talents with a focus on modern aesthetics and a limited colour palette, Felicity creates truly minimalist contemporary ceramics that are timeless in their beauty.
