Ceramic flower bowl by Helen Bailes


Helen is also a member of 14 THE GALLERY a small arts and crafts co-operative in the refurbished Pannier Market in Great Torrington. She teaches at The Plough Arts Centre.
Helen's work is inspired by the forms, patterns and dynamics found in the natural world, such as fern fronds, shells, the movement of water and the ever changing sky. Through the sensual handling of clay the natural process of growth, containment and disintegration are evoked.
