I have learnt a new skill lately, in my pottery class, and that is to print photographs onto clay. For an exhibition recently, I created a series of tiles using my favourite photos I took in Cambodia many years ago. As soon as I learnt this new skill within the medium of clay, I knew I wanted to use these photos.

Since, I have had the idea of printing portraits, particularly children’s, onto porcelain. A very different way of capturing memories and displaying them… I have many thoughts and ideas within this. Porcelain is a material which is very pure, white and clear. Portraits emailed to me would be edited slightly to create more contrast, then printed. These prints are then mixed with some materials and printed onto the clay- a magical process! Fired twice, they become strong, simple artwork of your family, friends or favourite place.

Thankyou for the invitation to express my dreams!!

Best,
Jess
