A selection of framed wall pieces are coming with me to @ceramicartlondon - They feature small coloured porcelain pieces and found objects and are inspired by walks and places - each one has a story. Everything is getting carefully packed up and ready for the set up and it opens on Thursday evening. Looking forward to seeing friends and meeting new people! Hope you can make it.

The joy of small things. These will just sit in your hand - stoneware, porcelain, oxides, wire. New objects and vessels coming with me to #ceramicartlondon very soon. Find me there on stand 18, 8th - 10th May #CAL2026 #elainesheppardbolt  @ceramicartlondon

These pieces came out of the kiln today, ready for @ceramicartlondon in May. The small sculptural pieces are becoming part of playful groups that can be changed or regrouped create a narrative. The forms I’m making are often directly inspired by landscapes, and (for these ones) gardens and our role in them. Scroll to see the central ‘tree stump’ during its making, the colour palette I put together with slips and glazes and the original oak tree stump that inspired it.
I’m excited to be showing this new work soon for my first time at #ceramicartlondon2026 alongside showing some of my more familiar wall pieces and (just a few) small vessels.
Hope to see you there.

Wall piece entitled ‘Herbarium’ made with coloured porcelain pieces and wire. Each porcelain form is hand-modelled using natural forms such as leaves and flowers of the garden as inspiration. This piece was photographed for me last year by the very lovely @catherinebensonphoto and similar things will be coming with me to @ceramicartlondon in May. I’m working hard on all fronts making small sculptural groups and wall pieces for the show and can’t wait to share them with you.
