Bonnie Hislop is a Brisbane based creative with a particular focus on ceramics.
From her Brisbane studio she creates functional ceramic art pieces that are meticulously hand built and painted with bright colours and intricate line detail. As a self confessed accidental cat lady, Bonnie’s current practice has evolved from a small range of cat (and occasionally dog) vessels to include an ever expanding and evolving array of creations.
Bonnie has several years experience facilitating regular classes ceramic illustration and hand building techniques at various venues around Queensland. She has recently opened her first Brick and Mortar Showroom and Painting Studio in Fortitude Valley’s California Lane, and is currently preparing to open a second maker space in Yeerongpilly.
