He makes a plate or a cup, or a bowl, whatever he feels like that day. And then once it’s mostly done, Adrien starts sculpting out faces by hand. In some cases he uses faces of people he knows, in others, it’s just faces with particular facial expressions.
Once he’s happy with the shape he uses tools to add more details to faces, to make deeper and more precise lines, to bring out the features more clearly. After that he just bisque fires the plates and covers them in glaze.
Sometimes he’ll make plates that are just white, sometimes he’ll pick a color or two. When the inspiration strikes Adrien will make multicolored pieces. It’s all about how he feels in the moment and what he wants to do with a particular piece of art.
We’d also like to point out that while we focused on his pottery, Adrien also makes sculptures out of glass and he does create actual sculptures, not just plates. In his free time, he also enjoys yoga and skateboarding. He’s a pretty fascinating person actually and it looks like he’s not one to limit himself to just one thing. He likes to explore and try out new things and experience life in many ways.
