about the artist

Blandine Anderson

After completing her Fine Art Ceramics (BA Hons) at Exeter College of Art and Design, Blandine taught for five years at colleges in Somerset before setting up her first ceramic studio in 1988. Through a combination of skill and her unique vision, Blandine has not only established her reputation as an artist intent on pushing creative boundaries, but has also gained an enthusiastic following for her hugely collectable one-off sculptural works. The inspiration for most of Blandine’s work begins in the forms of the landscape of her immediate surroundings in North Devon. All of Blandine’s works are unique. No moulds or repeat methods are used in their production. Colour and texture are added using porcelain slips which are stencilled, painted and incised. Oxides and glazes are added after biscuit firing and fired again, to 1240 Centigrade. Small amounts of onglaze enamel and/or metallic lustre are added for the third firing.
