Tiébélé village in Burkina Faso, home to the Kassena people. The Tiébélé royal residence is made up of clay houses hand-painted in different geometric patterns using clay paints. The patterns are an indicator of royal staus within the community. Another difference is the huts’ door sizes. The chief has the house with the smallest door, for his protection.

So, a bit of pottery porn for a Saturday. Whilst illustration is my main gig, I do make stuff. Not for a while, as Covid and lockdown sort of took the heart out of me. Also, won't be able to kickstart it again until the spring because of the insane energy costs. But I thought I would show a few of my favourite pieces

ETA: Thankyou so much for all the likes, comments and boosts 🙏 xxx
