Beautiful bit of stoneware - signed Paddy?
« on: October 29, 2008, 12:57:40 PM »
Does anyone recognise this work at all?  It's incredibly well excecuted, which makes me think it should be 'someone' - but I cant find any studio potter called Paddy!!

Hi chloe, can you get a closer more detailed shot...just in case me are missing something....as sometimes things are just signed quickly and messy...see this link for example:

I dunno --- But found a PADDY BOURKE 

http://www.kiwiartz.com/art/7_paddy-bourke?cat=ceramics A wild, wild guess....

There is an address/web site here for info on Paddy Bourke, if you want to ask (contact) how they were signed: 
http://www.artis.co.nz/artisanz/artists.htm

Could try to contact to see types of work -- maybe? Just a suggestion...  ??? :-\
