About this maker

Jan hand-builds earthenware animal figures. Surface details such as colour and texture are achieved through the use of sprigs, depicting flora and fauna to place the animal in a context of its surrounding natural world. She embeds leaves and flowers into the skin of the animal piece, as a kind of relief-tattoo. The result is unique, capturing an often  joyous and humorous character.
