Alison is a ceramic artist living in mid Devon. She studied at Plymouth College of Art and Design and has recently returned to ceramics after a long break.

Alison’s work is mostly figurative and is hand built from earthenware clay. It comes out of a lifelong interest in myth and folklore and a strong connection to the natural world.

The Bird People series emerged after a sunny springtime spent watching the bustling activity of birds in the garden outside her workshop (with occasional brief flights inside the room.)
