Jan Dagley
Jan is a local artist with a Fine Art MA and an MA in Ceramics. She has exhibited widely across the UK and also runs courses from her studio in Esher.
Her work is either in response to poetry or smell, specifically perfume, and is in two or three dimensions. It is based on the concept of synaesthesia, where one sense stimulates another.
Her abstract paintings are a combination of acrylics and oils. The use of bold, energetic and vibrant colours in her paintings is also reflected in her ceramics. Her ceramics are statement pieces which are fired to stoneware and so can be displayed inside and outside.
