Gloria is a mixed media artist, inspired primarily by nature and her love of the natural world. She is heavily influenced by fluidity of form in trees and leaves, and her local countryside. She uses painting, hand dyeing and texture to bring her subject matter to life.

In recent years, she has focused on ceramics, textiles, glass and mosaic work.

Her work has been exhibited extensively in France – in Paris, Versailles, Saint Germain en Laye and Saint Nom La Bretèche.

Recent exhibitions in the UK have been at Standen House, a National Trust property just outside East Grinstead in Sussex, and at the Barbican Library in London.

The pieces shown on this website were all designed and created by Gloria. Her ceramics all make use of recycled terracotta or white clay, and incorporate natural pigments.

Gloria lives in Surrey in the UK and has a pottery studio and art studio where she spends most of her time. She loves spending time with local art groups (life drawing, painting, sewing, textiles, mixed-media) and teaching people who’d like to try their hand at pottery. One of the things inspires Gloria significantly is seeing the work of others and trying new techniques. Please feel free to contact her if you have any questions or comments.
