Irene Poulton Ceramic sculpture

I am a ceramic sculptor. My pieces are all one off and are most usually fired in the Raku technique. I have been involved in this type of firing for over 20 years and have recently written a book, which is due to be published in August of this year 2006. My web site has images of the type of pieces I create as well as a short biography.

Raku firing today bears little resemblance to the original Japanese Raku method. Each person finds the way that suits them best. For myself I find that the best results I get are from multi firing each piece as this seems to give the glaze more depth. This also means that by overlaying glazes you get some surprising and exciting results. If you like to experiment with your glazes and don't mind the odd disaster, you will enjoy Raku.
