Dorothy Harrison working in Sculpture and Drawing
Resume
I was born in the North East but have lived and worked for most of my life in Mid and North Wales. I studied geology in Birmingham and then at The Open University where I was working. After many years in health and social work I trained at The North Wales School of Art and Design in Fine Art drawing and an MA in Art Practice focussing on ceramics.
I have been employed as a community artist and tutor several art groups in Wales and Shropshire where I now live. I work in schools and occasional voluntary classes ones for the Qube in Oswestry.
I am interested in the broad notion of creativity and process in art as it relates to drawing and sculpture. I have a long standing interest in traditional slipware and the history of the Buckley Potteries.
