Laura Hollis
Laura Hollis is a multi-disciplined artist focussing primarily on ceramics and silk painting. Her style varies according to her chosen medium but is always inspired by nature and the beauty surrounding her and her young family in the Kent countryside. Pattern and texture are key features of her work.
Laura graduated from university in 2001 with a degree in Print Media and Surface Design. Shortly after, she fell in love with the silk painting process as a natural progression from her studies. Laura has continued to develop this skill and has established a style that appeals to both adults and children. She also teaches silk painting workshops.
She became interested in ceramics after joining an evening class and became completely addicted. Since then, Laura has immersed herself in the world of pottery, joining the team at Aylesford Pottery, first as a studio and shop assistant and now as a teacher in her own right. The experience gained there has allowed Laura to develop her own range of ceramics which has evolved over the years into the ceramics you see now. She specialises in wheel-thrown pieces that are cut away to reveal unique fossil designs and small animal sculptures.
