These mini wall plate were part of a series called, “I Can’t Believe This is Still Necessary”, and included in my gallery show, CACOPHONY. The theme of the show was the daily noise which surrounds us. If we sit and let the messages filter through the chaos, we may find things we need to hear even if they are uncomfortable or painful. Sometimes the message that needs to be heard is just “No!”.

I handmade each wall plate from red stoneware. After slab rolling and forming the shape, I handpainted the lady with underglaze. After bisque firing, I applied a clear glaze to the front before firing to cone 6.

Each plate is ready to hang with ribbon loops, and singed on the bottom.
