Clare mostly works in clay. Work is sometimes cast in bronze, an ancient process, which brings durability and unique aesthetic qualities. The relatively unpredictable results of raku firing contribute to the character of other pieces. Unfired earth and ash create less permanent sculptures - reflecting our transient presence. Drawings are done from life and from photographs.
Clare has a Fine Art degree (1st class) and an MA. She taught for many years at Fermynwoods Contemporary Art, and ran art workshops in schools, at Yardley Arts and other venues. Now concentrating on making her own work. Delighted to discuss commissions.
