James Tisdale (Austin, TX, USA)
http://jamestisdale.com/
("The historical art influences on my work range from the figurative
work of the Renaissance, the kitsch work of the 30's and 40's, to the
innocent God-felt work of southern folk art. My pieces are constructed
with terra cotta earthenware by methods of coiling and pinching. Once
the form is established, the surfaces are then finished with several
layers of both stains and glaze, which are taken through multiple
oxidation firings of cone 03 temperature.")
