These female form works are truly special works of art to own, gift, and cherish. This female form has a smooth surface and drips of glaze that follow her natural curves. It has visual movement and natural balance that makes it a stunning piece to view. (We have additional works from this series at our store location.)
This collection of handmade pottery pieces has several levels of meaning. They are intriguing to explore and steeped in archetypal and personal symbolism. The female form, womanhood, body love, empowerment, and more is all celebrated in the ongoing series of "Chick-o-Sticks". The tongue-and-cheek name of these pieces reveals the artist's sense of playfulness and joy in creating the hand formed sculptures.
This Kansas City artist uses figure as a three-dimensional canvas. The eye will travel completely around the surface. Each piece tells a unique, personal story.
This artist begins on the potter’s wheel or with slabs of clay. The pieces grow as she builds them. Once the core of the piece is built, she will carve the surface and add texture. Then the base color glaze is applied and the piece is kiln fired. Once the first firing is complete, the artists continues to add and wipe off a combination of terra sigilattas, slips, stains and glazes, then fire again, repeating this process until the artist achieves the desired effect. Each piece takes dedication and patience.
