Linda Bates ‘Everlasting Flowers’

Linda Bates is one of our most popular artists, and her cute, whimsical works give people great joy. A former Ingham girl, she now lives in historical Herberton. Despite the commute, Linda is one of our resident artists. In her words …
‘You will find Cadaghi Pottery somewhere in the middle of insatiable curiosity, imagination and whimsy – supported by a tonne of clay. The birds and animals of our beautiful country provide endless ideas for sculpture, as well as ideas from a rampant imagination developed during quite a lot of years as a kindy teacher. Teaching others to create with clay gives me great joy, as well as the opportunity to refine my own practice as I work out just why I do things in a certain way.’
