Celebrating making text with clay and ceramics!
Here’s a little overview I have put together of the ceramic text art that I have been making over the last few years.
Debbie Harman is a Melbourne artist who has been exploring ways in which personal text can be put into public space.
Much of this artwork has been done using ceramics.

sharing the joy
‘I just want to put one there!’
now here, I just couldn’t decide on which photo of Susan to keep and which to discard. Â I simply couldn’t as they both have their nice parts.
As ever, just a wonderful subject of exquisite fashion and exquisiteness.
