Katie Croft is one of those artists that makes your jaw drop. It has been a dream for a while now to collect one of her trim-fold ceramic pieces, and you can understand why! I loved doing this short isolation interview with Katie just the other day!

"I want my work to speak of female relationships."
And just where do you get your inspiration? I've not seen anything like your work before?
Everything is inspiration. Books, movies, art, stories, history, politics, people, places, nature, conversations. It's hard to decide what to paint or draw or sculpt next because there is so much in my head. I get stuck in the process of deciding sometimes!WHO IS YOUR FAVOURITE HISTORICAL FEMALE ARTIST KATIE?
I like Anne Lamott. And I think she said sit your butt in the seat and write. I think it's the same. Sit your butt in the seat and paint, or draw, or sculpt. I think you have to work really hard and take chances to find your way in art.
And finally, WHO is your favourite female artist working at the moment?
Ohhh good question. So many great women artists working today. I'm really in love with the work of Alonsa Guevara. Her work is colorful and beautiful and deeply personal and powerful.
