EWARE:Marc Digeros and Other Boys That Get Low

Featuring Marc Digeros LA, Joseph Pintz OH, Arthur Halvorsen MA, Marty Fielding VT, and Brian R. Jones OR

Teapot - Marc Digeros

I found Marc Digeros’s work only a couple years ago and admire it greatly. He has a way of reinventing forms so they are completely innovative yet accessible. I am excited to be a part of this small group show and wish I could make the trip to KC to see it.

To quote the Red Star Studios Facebook event:

There is a lot of enthusiasm for low fire ceramics today. LA artist, Marc Digeros was the first when uncovering the men that have gotten in touch with earthenware. He attended the University of Minnesota, BFA, and the University of Washingtion, MFA. In 2000, Marc moved to Los Angeles where he still resides. He has worked for the architect Frank Gehry since 2001, as the model shop manager.

Please join us for the opening reception First Friday March 5th from 6 – 9pm. Red Star Studios is located on 821 W 17th St, Kansas City, MO 64108.

Holiday Studio Sale Dec. 4 & 5

Welcome one and all who can make it up or over for hot cider, cookies, and pottery.

For those of you who can’t attend, stay posted for upcoming additions to my webstore @ etsy.com.

The pot in the flier is a vase that I made before going down to the Washington Craft Show a couple weeks ago. It started as a big thrown cylinder that I cut apart, flattened into slabs, reassembled into a rectangle and added slabs for the top and bottom. I always appreciate a lack of balance and symmetry, so the mouth of the vase is off to the side which provides the possibility for unique arrangements.

I’ll post a preview of some of the other work for the holiday sale as well as directions and details shortly.

Solo Show at The Artisan Gallery

This is the work I delivered to lovely Northampton, Mass on Tuesday. It was a pretty drive through the Green Mountains as Fall is arriving and patches of orange and red are visible on the hillside. The show opened on Friday and runs through Nov. 8.

Tiffany, Isa and I will be going back on October 10th for the Opening Reception where I will likely be upstaged once again by my adorable 11 month old daughter – and rightly so.

This cycle brought out some new vases, serving dishes, and box forms as well as a transparent satin matt glaze, a white terra sigillata and a heavier dose of a dijon colored glaze than usual.

I’m honored to have the opportunity to show in this great gallery in this hip little New England town. Check out the website for The Artisan Gallery. If this is your neck of the woods, please stop by and take a look.
