Gloria Whiting

Ceramicist

Gloria is a mixed media artist, inspired primarily by nature and her love of the natural world. She is heavily influenced by fluidity of form in trees and leaves, and her local countryside. She uses painting, hand dyeing and texture to bring her subject matter to life. In recent years, she has focused on ceramics, textiles, glass and mosaic work. Her work has been exhibited extensively in France – in Paris, Versailles, Saint Germain en Laye and Saint Nom La Bretèche. Recent exhibitions in the UK have been at Standen House, a National Trust property just outside East Grinstead in Sussex, and at the Barbican Library in London. The pieces shown on this website were all designed and created by Gloria. Her ceramics all make use of recycled terracotta or white clay, and incorporate natural pigments.
