A Ceramic Artist based in Wellington, New Zealand, with a passion for nature and its contrasts. ”My designs are raw and organic. Most of the work is made from porcelain with contrasting illustrations and glazes which are used to compliment the forms.”
Ana has had a life long passion for art and design and studied to become an Art Director for Film and Television in Cape Town. She has, over the years, had experience in graphic design, video production and other art forms, until about 6 years ago she discovered her passion for clay and hasn't stopped making work since. She is a wife, mother and a full time artist with a love for modern ceramic design and illustration.
Her work is slip cast, wheel thrown and hand built mostly out of porcelain, it is then glazed and or illustrated before going in for a second firing in the kiln. Ana finds inspiration for her work from within, as well as from her surroundings. She has a passion for nature and the many vibrant colours, lines and textures it holds.
