Ceramic Work Ceramic work concentrates heavily on the decoration and surface treatment of the pieces in both Ceramics & Jewellery .
The decoration worked in coloured slips trailed, painted, and Sgraffito. on a terracotta or white clay body with a clear gaze - the result is a very earthy palette.
Animals and reptiles, of which Carolyne has a great fondness for, often feature in her work. Among her many group exhibitions in the past was Art at the Zoo held at Taronga Park Zoo in Sydney,raising funds for the Orang-utans Rainforest exhibit which was very successful.
A range of Turquoise Ceramic work influenced by the elements on an inspirational trip to broom, after an exhibition/artist in residency at Uluru. The visual impact of the rich land surfaces meeting serene deep turquoise sea had a huge impact after the stark dry hot windswept desert. This range of work exhibited in Brooms Matso's Gallery.
