Renee Kilburn Ceramics Renee Kilburn Ceramics Renee Kilburn Ceramics 1/1 Renée Kilburn is a professional ceramic artist originally from Sweden but now a British citizen living in Weston-super-Mare where her studio is open to visitors by appointment. She creates brightly glazed stoneware sculptures that bring colour to the garden all through the year and a smile to the viewer who might stop to remember a loved one. Renée has been commissioned to make flowers, especially for this purpose. Her pieces are either coiled, slab-built or press moulded, then handmade details are added to give a narrative and movement. The designs are loosely based on nature to evoke a feeling of happiness and wonder, just like a walk in a garden would. The material used is a high-fired white stoneware clay, making every piece frostproof and suitable for display outdoors. Hand-painted with shiny, brightly coloured glazes the pieces come to life in the 3rd and final firing.
