Surfing with Helen Bates - February 24th., 2005 - USA, UK, Norway
Hi, back at the surfing again!
Here we go then...
David Waln (Summerville, OR, USA)
http://www.eoni.com/~dwaln/
Waln is a "functional" potter, making bowls, mugs, platters, urns, and
other useful ware, much of which is quietly decorated with moonlit
pinewoods scenes and the like. (Mentioned in a Clayart post in
December 2004 re: glaze tension test method)
20th Century Marks (Little Burstead, Essex, England, UK)
http://www.20thcenturymarks.co.uk/
The company carries a very large stock of original UK 20th Century
design items, including decent studio pottery, by name and anonymous
makers.
Ole Krongaard and Anne Kari Ramberg (Sandefjord, Norway)
http://www.krukkeri.dk/
Strong design. Ramberg is a thrower and also makes figural sculptures.
Krongaard, who is also a sculptor, is a hand builder. (See Ole's
"Growth Stones.")
Aurea Carter Antiques (London, England, UK)
http://www.englishceramics.com/aurea/aurea.asp
18th and early 19th century English pottery and porcelain
(Very interesting)
Kristen Kieffer (Worcester, MA, USA)
http://www.kiefferceramics.com/
The pieces are, as Kieffer says, "ornately functional."
(The Forms are thrown, then altered and built. Surfaces are
embellished with stamping, sprigging, and slip trailing)
