EXHIBITION KITTY SHEPHERD IN SUSSEX

I am a big fan of ceramics, and some of the best I have seen, and I lust after, is the work of Kitty Shepherd.

You can see her work, along side the paintings of Barbara Macfarlane, at the Zimmer Stewart Gallery in Arundel 2 -30th May 09

Kitty's new series of flatware bowls and platters take their inspiration from the fish in the frozen seas around Iceland and how they might look in the light through water
