Unbelievable Ceramics!

Katharine Morling is an artist who makes everyday objects in an unexpected medium.


Though at first glance her pieces look like cardboard or a 3D drawing, they are actually handmade ceramics!



My work can be described as 3 dimensional drawings, in the medium of ceramics.



Her work is incredibly fun and playful. She even sells pieces on her website.

Now there’s a growing trend in the US to have plastic surgery to make hands prettier before the all-important selfie.

The procedure takes 5-10 minutes and costs about £800 ($1350 USD) – just another huge expense on top of all the wedding bills.
