Patricia Englund

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Patricia Englund, née Burge, (1922–2004) was an Australian potter and artist from Sans Souci, New South Wales.

Career[edit]

Patricia first studied painting at the Julian Ashton School in Sydney before she took pottery lessons at Wollongong Technical College, where she was taught by her husband Ivan Englund.[1] In 1955 after quickly developing as a highly skilled potter using a small wood-burning kiln, Patricia also went on to teach ceramics at the college. Patricia's works are held in collections at the National Gallery of Victoria,[2] the Powerhouse Museum[3] in Sydney and the National Gallery of Australia.[4] Her items of pottery have been exhibited in the Western Australia Art Gallery and Newcastle Teachers College as well as in New Zealand, Philippines, Japan, Hong Kong and Thailand.[5]
