SALLY HENRY Sally produces hand-painted ceramics predominantly using the colours and images of Caribbean nature. Sally is self-taught as an artist, inspired by numerous life-drawing classes in the West Midlands, UK. Since moving to Barbados from UK in 1992, she has channelled her interest in art into hand-painting on a ceramic canvas. She learnt from Jo-Anne Johnson the process of slip-casting, and how to use underglazes and glazes to create functional, decorative ceramic pieces; tiles, plates, vases, bowls, masks. She has gradually developed her own home-based business ‘Nature-painted Ceramics’. Sally has exhibited widely at local events and exhibitions and won awards at the Cropover Visual Arts Competitions, as well as at Nifca. Currently she can be found at Brighton Farmers' Market and at the Crane Hotel on Wednesday evenings. Her work is also on sale at On the Wall at Earthworks, The Tamarind Seed, Island Crafts and other outlets. Her work-shop is in Dash Valley, St George (246) 426 8274 (246) 249 7407 rsally.henry@gmail.com
