It's fair to say that during the May 2021 Ceramics Congress,Brenda Quinn blew us all away with her unique and signature decorative techniques. It's always a pleasure to check back in with our workshop artists to see what they've got going on in the studio. 



Brenda does not disappoint with her latest exhibition at <a href="https://charliecummingsgallery.com/represented-artists-o-r/brenda-quinn.html">Charlie Cummings Gallery</a>. Symmetry and a beautiful selective colour palette make this new series of cups,bowls,plates and vases a perfect addition to your spring table setting. Her work is so highly sought after that I'm not convinced there will even be any pieces left unsold by the time this blog post is up!

Brenda's artist statement via <a href="https://artaxis.org/artist/brenda-quinn/">Artaxis</a>: "My work is inspired by and is a nod to the broad history of decorative arts. Developing forms that have a utilitarian function and a dynamic design is like trying to solve an evolving equation with an elusive answer. For me,this equation becomes more complicated with the addition of an ever-expanding range of functions,techniques,and glazes to my working vocabulary. The chase for a solution is engaging; so much so that I’m often interjecting more variables into my process in order to keep the chase going."
