Ailsa Cowan
Originally from the Isle of Arran, Scotland, Ailsa grew up surrounded by mountains, nature, sea and exposed to all sorts of weather. Years of walking through fields, hills and mountains, past old farms and crofts have left many memories and tramping in New Zealand has brought back a lot of these. Between the iconic NZ bach and the Scottish croft these images find their way onto her ceramics.
Ailsa says: "My “hills” and “croft” pieces are mixing memories and dreams. They take me back to places and times which make me smile and I hope they do the same for you.
As for my hearts, these are my ultimate whimsical pieces. They can mean whatever you want them to mean; even if that’s simply a colourful piece of wall art that makes you smile."
