Plates by two more artists


Here are photos of the plates painted by Eli Bornowsky and first-time visitor to my studio, Renée Van Halm.

They both treated the underglazes very much as paint, freely mixing colours, rather than maintaining unicolour areas.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Renée’s are painted from collages she had assembled beforehand. It was marvellous to see how she created these bold images on our usual oval plate forms. She ignores the shape of the plate and its rim, whereas Eli makes use of the form of the plate to arrange his painting.

Again, hover over each photo to read the caption.
