Sculptures Before Firing Gallery
This gallery showcases sculptures before they undergo firing and painting, offering a glimpse into their raw form before the final transformation.
Not all pieces will make it into their portfolio pages, as breakages, firing challenges, or artistic refinements may prevent them from reaching the standard Dee envisions. But rest assured—those that don’t make it into the official collection still find a home. Unbroken pieces are lovingly placed in Dee’s studio display cabinet or gifted to family members who have a special connection to a particular sculpture.
Every sculpture is part of the journey, shaping Dee’s craft and vision, whether it remains in the studio or emerges fully realized in its final form.
This keeps it warm, clear, and engaging while capturing the spirit of the collection. Let me know if you'd like any refinements!
I love how you honour every piece, whether they make it into the portfolio or remain cherished in your space.
