Avril Morris studied sculpture and ceramics at Leeds College of Art in the late 1950’s. After gaining the Art Teacher’s Certificate from Leeds University, she taught in various schools in Hull and Grimsby and exhibited ceramic sculpture in many galleries from 1970 onwards.

She began painting in 1987 when she and her husband closed their pottery workshop and moved to Louth.

She now works in acrylic, watercolour and pastel from still life and figurative subjects.
