Vicki Charles is a talented ceramic sculptor originally from Melbourne, Australia but now settled in her beautiful home in The Wood, Nelson, New Zealand - which includes a small gallery and a fully equipped studio. In the six years that Vicki has been practicing her sculpture business in NZ, she sells nationally in galleries and commissioned work in Australia.
In the last couple of years her sculpture has been recognised by her peers through the numerous judged and non-judged competitions nationally.

She enjoys watching them learn technical skills and then seeing their creativity come to life i something formed by their own hands.
