Busy Bee 711/2 Bowl

Poet William Blake once wrote ‘The busy bee has no time for sorrow’ – a phrase that is most apt for the hardworking bee at the centre of Kerry’s miniature bowl design. Nestled in the midst of a delicate pink flower in full bloom, this small bee is busy gathering nectar while the sun shines. Soon it will be time for it to move on to the next flower in the meadow until it is fully laden and can return to its hive. To add to the delicacy of the bee’s wings, Kerry has employed the use of scragfitto to incise into the clay very fine lines. When washed with Moorcroft’s metallic oxide paints a very subtle pattern in the clay becomes visible to create the effect of a bee’s transparent wings.
