About Me

Introduction

I’m Debbie Jurblum.

Living in Melbourne Australia.

I have been making ceramics for about 10 years on and off.
I love Porcelain and also make Stoneaware.  I create a range of pieces, using raw materials to create my Glazes.
Always happy to learn new techniques to add to my repertoire!

 

What I Love about Ceramics

I love the feeling completing my ceramic pieces using the whole ceramic process.
Throwing, handbuilding, firing and creating my own glazes.
It gives me a feeling of complete gratitude to be able to lose myself in the zone knowing full well that no matter how much time and effort you put into your work sometimes the pieces dont work out, so that when they do I’m twice as grateful!

How I started with ceramics

A girlfriend took me to some handbuilding classes and then I transferred to the wheel.
Then I went to a wonderful Ceramics classes at Slow Clay, In Melbourne and it was there that I had an ‘AH HA’ moment when I realised I had always wanted to do this and I was finally ‘home’!

What inspires me

Life  and thinking positive and surrounded by like minded people inspires me. Techniques and trying to perfect my ideas!

What I'm working on at the moment

Porcelain Candleabra’s and very fine paper porcelain pieces.

Ribboned porcelain pieces.

My Artist Statement

You cannot go through life thinking I should have.
You make a decision and then do it!
Life is to short and Ive heard so many times “I wish I had” which only leaves regrets.
I follow my passions and know that life is good!
I keep it simple!
