Welcome to the Vivid Ceramics Website Catrin Mostyn Jones' work is inspired by exploring creatures of the sea and images of the human body at a microscopic level. Examining the complex and colourful images derived from these studies has given Catrin the stimulus to develop and explore differing combinations of form and colour. Catrin's vivid collection of hard built and press moulded sculptural forms are brought to life by the additions of growths using coils and textures. Her work is predominantly non-functional or it could be said that some of her pieces are functional with a twist. The collection ranges from large extravagant one off artefacts to medium and small decorative, tactile pieces. What really brings the work alive though is her glazing, through a wide range of earthenware glazes applied by spraying multiple layers sometimes using a wax resist. The resulting effect has been described as: "A Sensual, Evocative and Organic burst of Coral Reef Colours and Textures".
