Cathy Allen Pottery – Goldfinch Soap/sponge dish (Local artist)

Cathy Allen has been an avid part-time potter since 1991 when she enrolled in her first evening pottery class. Her work is mostly made on the wheel and is mainly of a functional nature. She has participated in many different method workshops over the years, but early focus was slip and carving techniques on her wares. Recently the work has changed and now includes some diverse patterns and colours, showing that her freedom of artistic expression is coming to the forefront! Her work is made up of both porcelain and stoneware clay bodies and includes the patterns which have now become a rewarding inspiration to her.

Soap or sponge dish with groove for draining. Hand carved and painted with various birds.
