I love to experiment with different ideas.
My life as an artist started with Covent garden selling Vue d'optique pictures I made using over 30 prints in one piece of artwork.
I then started painting in oils and exhibited with Art & Craft Fairs all over the country and abroad.
Not content I moved on to Sculpture my first making and selling bronzes then after having my work stolen by a so-called foundry, I moved onto ceramics as I can control every element in my environment.
Dorienne gives expression to her ideas via Sculpture using clay as her medium.
Dorienne’s speciality is making quirky personal sculptures from clients photos, whether it be for a special occasion like a wedding, family, friend or pets she manages to capture their personality just from the photographs.
I would describe Dorienne’s work as whimsical and humorous and very figurative, always fun. Remarkably Dorienne uses no visual references or influences for her sculptures, and they vary in genre depending on pure imagination & aesthetic instincts. Her work evolves through tactile sensations inherent in clay as a modelling material.
Her inner feelings and sensations dictate each stage of the process until a satisfactory form is achieved.
