About Diana Gillispie
When did you first start making your craft?
What do you draw inspiration from? How do you incorporate flowers into your work?
These vases are a part of a new body of work I'm exploring. Minimalistic in design, I am inspired by my appreciation for asian ceramics, primarily Japanese. The vases are wheel thrown and altered. What makes them unique is that they provide a quiet and contemporary back drop to a beautiful bouquet of flowers.
