Tiffany Scull Ceramics
A Hummingbird flying, an Angelfish swimming or a Damselfly resting on a flower are some of the themes I have explored so far in my work. I view each piece as a three dimensional drawing and a window into the magical world of many different creatures. Each form I make is unique and drawn onto and cut away freehand using the technique of Sgraffito. My decoration evolves naturally and is built up over many days with different stages to create the desired final finish. Recent works are now extending this detail from the front to the back of dishes, and the bottoms of vessels. SGRAFFITO This word translated from Italian means ‘to scratch away’ and has been used by many cultures to decorate buildings, paintings and pottery. It was first used in china during the 11th and 12th century AD and in Europe during the 16th century as relief decoration on buildings.
