Artist Statement

My name is Alice Buttress and I live the lovely highland village of Carrbridge near the Cairngorm Mountains in Scotland.
I have been working with clay for the past twenty years and sell my work mainly from my Studio in Carrbridge and at exhibitions.
I work in stoneware and porcelain, sculpting, handbuilding and throwing in a traditional representational style. I fire my work in an electric kiln and gas Raku kiln with post firing reduction.
Also for the past 7 years I have been chainsaw carving wood sculptures for the garden, most popular carvings are owls, squirrels, and bears.
Inspiration for my work comes from historic cultures, legends and my surroundings in the Scottish Highlands....
