Chloe Harford
I make ceramic animal sculpture, not quite real, not quite cartoon; they do have character, I like to think an "I like you, please let me come live with you" appealing kind of face.
I have been making raku fired ceramics since leaving Plymouth College of Art (now Arts University Plymouth) in 1997 where I met my partner, the very well known & respected raku potter Chris Hawkins.
We share a workshop in the heart of the Tamar Valley on the borders of Devon & Cornwall, set on the banks of the river Tamar, we both love the nature haven around us with everything from dragonflies to beavers & otters using the 6 acres of land surrounding the pottery.
I sell my work predominantly through a wide selection of galleries, at ceramics & craft shows and direct from my website.
The galleries I supply regularly are listed below along with a list of upcoming shows.
