“Such a soulful expression..”

Virginia Dowe Edwards
Suffolk sculptor Virginia Dowe-Edwards has had a lifelong love of creating creatures from clay reaching back to her childhood years. Her distinctive dogs are hand crafted using a complex and unique process and then fired in a small smoke fired kiln giving them each their unique spots and markings. Finished with glaze applied to eyes and noses completes each beautiful expression. No two dogs are ever alike.
