Sophie MacCarthy

Over the last 20 years Sophie MacCarthy has established a reputation for her highly individual and painterly earthenware ceramics. She has exhibited widely in the UK and her work is in the Crafts Council collection and the National Art Collection of Great Britain and is also featured in many books on ceramics. She has a sensitive eye for form and with a bold use of coloured slips combined with wax resist and stencils, she creates distinctive patterns and vibrant motifs, but which also have gentle painterly qualities and subtle tonal depths of colour.
