Janet DeBoos - and Australian ceramic artist. I've seen much of her black and white work. These pieces are something altogether different and well, for me,,, arresting. I mean stop me in my tracks...arresting. I love everything about them. Simple cylinder shape, contrast, line work and design, the aboriginal reference and yet all of it comes across very modern. So excellent.

Thank you for sharing Jane DeBoos! I love her work! The combination of surface decorating and the colours are beautiful!
