Interviews with Ceramics Artists

Tuesday, November 3rd, 2009

It must be something about the cooler weather and the autumn leaves. Everyone seems to be talking about ceramics. From wheel thrown porcelain bowls to hand-built sculpture. Sgraffito carving, slip casting, raku, wood firing…. it all has a warmth to it that keeps us cozy as the days get cooler. The mug I drink my tea from and the bowl I use for my soup – both carefully made by the hands of a ceramics artist.

And to keep that conversation going, I’ve added interviews with two ceramics artists to the website. Get a little behind the scenes look at Ed Byers, whose hand-built sculptures each have their own story, and Heather Van Horn and Eric Hendrick; who create art, write poetry, and spend time with children.
