Sarah Guppy creates one-off hand-decorated ceramic domestic ware and hand-built sculptures. Her primary materials are earthenware and raku clay. Recently she has been experimenting with slip casting.\u00a0<\/p>

Working in clay gives me the ability to paint and decorate in three dimensions.<\/p>

Decoration is important to me, it equates with dressing the form. Using slips and under glazes I paint images of animals, still life images and patterns inspired by nature.<\/p>

A commission to hand-build a kea bird inspired me to explore this area in more depth. I have since developed a series of hand-built candlesticks using pairs of owls, tuis and moreporks (New Zealand\u2019s native owls), keas, doves and lovebirds.<\/p>
