Collection: Verna Witt
My life as a ceramic artist reflects my formal training as a textile designer. My work is often inspired by fashion; from clothing to accessories. I create clay vessels that might seem “wearable”; this will appeal to people who can see beyond the usual. Using stoneware clay slab technique, I am looking for ways to elicit surprise and create vessels that fool the eye. I custom design patterns for shapes, "pockets" and flaps. Various shades of clay
are used and left unglazed on the outside for a "leather" look. Metallic glaze is used on a clay zipper, clasps or buckle, my intent is to entice the viewer to come take a closer look. Perhaps tempt them to touch my pottery to make sure it is all made out of clay.
