I also liked Hannah Tounsend's paintings:
Winter Tide, (water based inks and acrylic on canvas)
The Harbour Walls Diptych, (water based inks and acrylic on canvas)
The Wave, (water based inks and acrylic on canvas)
All so attractive, but I especially like Hannah Tounsend's work. There is so much beautiful ceramic work around, I wonder how many of them make any kind of living at all given that even the most ardent collectors only buy a few from each maker.
ReplyDeleteTounsend's work is exciting indeed, Olga. I had not seen her work before. I am particularly fond of Margaret Curtis' work at the moment though - I just can't get enough of it: it has subtlety and depth and I treasure the pieces of hers that I own.
DeleteYou are right about ceramic work, particularly given how long, - weeks - before each piece is completed. I guess it's a labour of love: I know I used to love doing ceramics but unfortunately, I had to give it up - I still feel the sense of loss.
