Natalie Velthuyzen
Natalie Velthuyzen gained a Diploma in Ceramics through NSI and has worked in the ceramics industry for over 15 years. Natalie is well known for her excellent teaching at both Hornsby Ceramics and the Workshop
Art Centre, Sydney. Her role as workshop and events co-ordinator for the Australian Ceramics Association keeps her up-to-date with innovative
practitioners within the studio ceramics sector.
In her own studio practice, Natalie is drawn towards making ceramics for the kitchen, little pieces of artwork which can be used every day become part of the constant ritual of eating and sharing. Produced in her home studio in Sydney, her work has echoes of the sandstone and eucalypts of the Hawkesbury river. Natalie uses iron-bearing stoneware clay bodies, leaving an area of the pot unglazed to exhibit the clay’s natural
warmth. Her work can be found at Chinaclay, Clovelly and Kerrie Lowe Gallery, Newtown.
