Originally trained as an Interior Designer, Allison’s career was as a Freelance Photographic Stylist. She worked for several major interior design magazines as a Contributor and Editor then moved to advertising, primarily consulting to Domayne as Stylist / Creative Director. Allison has completed a Diploma of Ceramics and in addition to her home studio she creates two days a week in the open studio program at northern beaches TAFE. While styling interiors, homewares and food shoots Allison became obsessed with vessels and decorative ceramic forms. The foundation shapes of her work are wheel formed then she adds, changes, alters or attaches elements to achieve interesting pieces. As a perfectionist she deliberately avoids this in her ceramic process. Her development of glazes and surfaces always provide visual interest, mixing matt with glossy, rough with smooth with a limited black or white palette she adds surface texture or glaze to wheel formed shapes designed to be decorative and not functional.
