The Artist Residence Edinburgh

The Artist Residence Edinburgh

Here @ Barony House, the premiere Artist Residence Edinburgh, we are proud to showcase our most unique experience! Our resident Artist, has invented and hand made bespoke Ceramic and Stoneware treats throughout the property. She started out using local Ceramic Studios Edinburgh and Pottery Studios Edinburgh to learn the basic techniques and has now adapted them to our guest experience.

Necessity is the mother of invention:

In the 25+ years we have been married, Susan has always had a natural ability and flare for creative designs. Where she really comes alive is being able to take her designs into creative projects, inventing her own methods as a necessity to produce finished masterpieces. She sees her designs vividly in her mind so is always determined to ensure the finished product reflects her vision, accurately.

Barony House has provided a blank canvas for Susan to explore the potential of her visions and this high level of design can be witnessed throughout your stay!

Manic Mugs – Ceramic Studios Edinburgh

During lockdown, back in the COVID years, our artist went to work creating her Manic Mugs! They are a ceramic mug, designed with a very Picasso feel but uniquely Susan! You will find some Manic Mugs on your welcome tray on arrival and you can use them. On our display cabinet in the lobby, you will find these and her popular stoneware mugs for sale.

To keep up with demand, our Artist now has her own Kiln. She has been enabled, to create her own hand built stoneware mugs for our guests. Her stoneware mugs incorporate her own construction inventions. Edinburgh Pottery Studios were so impressed that our resident artist is regularly commissioned to run Pottery Classes. Susan enjoys teaching her own proprietary methods to her students at the Pottery Studios Edinburgh.

The easiest way to enjoy these mugs from our Artist Residence Edinburgh is to take home your own souvenir. I’m afraid, only existing guests are allowed to purchase her mugs. Such is the demand, she can only make enough for our existing guests.
