Coming Soon

Hi, I’m Vick and I’m lucky enough to work from my studio cabin in the heart of beautiful mid-Norfolk, with the ‘help’ of my loveable Whippet idiots, Lupin and Lily, and my Long Haired Miniature Dachshunds. I’ve always loved animals and have studied their behaviour, form and function, which is why they always feature in my work. I have a zoology degree and for 14 years I worked for the brilliant Dogs Trust charity in their London office, before making a lifestyle change and a move to the country.

For some time I worked for some time as a pet portrait artist and then a polymer clay artist, but as the clay became difficult to source during the pandemic, and suffering from the wear and tear on my hands that sculpting with the stiffer clay brings, I took the decision to jump into the world of ceramics. It has been a steep learning curve but fortunately I like a challenge and now I wouldn’t dream of doing anything else.

I specialise in sculpting sighthounds with their wonderful graceful lines and gentle natures. My curled-up sleeping hounds really need to be picked up and held to be properly appreciated. They are part press-molded, part sculpted, so each one is an individual and glazes are brushed-on in different combinations and layers.
