    About
    Biography

    Noelle Horsfield?s work is hand built before the forms are decorated using incising techniques called mishima and sgraffito. These processes produce illustrations that resemble a printmaker's etchings or woodblock prints. She further develops the imagery using repurposed vintage decals; often firing a pot multiple times.

    Horsfield?s illustrations draw from traditional folk art, blue and white Asian designs, tattoo art, typography, and wood cut printmaking designs.The entirely handmade pieces range from tiny tidbit plates to serving vessels of all sizes to large decorative vases and urns and are covered in drawn animals, oak leaves, text, and floral patterns. The use of southern sayings and lighthearted profanity have become a signature of her work.
