Kathy Palenski is a potter of more than 30 years’ experience, specialising mainly in a wide range of domestic ware. She trained in London and set up studios in Wellington, Auckland and on the Otago Peninsula before establishing her present studio at Scapes Gallery in Caversham with Riki Julin. Over the past few years she has been studying and testing printing on clay. The varied and wonderful New Zealand bird and plant life has a great influence on her pottery.
