Peter Beard

My work has always been inventive and I work in an intuitive way, constantly sketching and experimenting with new forms and processes. My forms are strong and simple but have complex surfaces which draw the viewer to look more closely. Each piece works as a whole, combining harmony of form and pattern.

My influence is mainly nature and landscape.

I use techniques of layering glaze and painting patterns with wax between layers of glaze, the wax acting as a resist between layers. This is meticulous process which creates complex patterns and textures within the glazes. The work is stoneware.
