Gail Dooley

Inspired by the sea, nature and birds, Yorkshire-based artist Gail Dooley creates whimsical mirrors and sculptures which reflect her passion for wildfowl and the sea. She employs an intricate technique of hand building and sculpting stoneware clay, which is then fired at a low temperature. Once painted with two or more glazes, it is then fired once or twice again to high temperature, whereupon the glazes react to produce the lovely rich, layered effect.
