Wallflower Ceramics
About The Artist
Jane Martin • Richmond, VA

Inspired by my own garden and all things floral, my earthenware wall hangings are created entirely by hand in my Richmond, Virginia studio. I use a variety of hand building techniques and incorporate wheel-thrown elements to bring an arrangement of clay flowers to life. Low fire glazes and underglazes brighten my blooms and add realism; flowing ribbons and small insects give movement and whimsy. The hand-stenciled tile background provides a charming contrast. Wallflowers are my tribute to the real thing—those garden beauties that bring us joy and make us smile. My goal is to capture their loveliness; to surprise and to delight!
