Caroline BrinkmanAbout My Work: My goal is to continue to produce uncommon and completely personal results. I strive to share my delight with the beauty of creation. My faces are benevolent spirits watching our human foibles and endeavoring to assist when possible. 
C Denise CorcoranAbout My Work: 
About My Work: My work is made with porcelain and stoneware and is organic in nature. To achieve these forms I throw pieces on the potter's wheel and then alter them while they are still very soft. Some are decorated with clay "paint" called slip, some are glazed. To enhance these forms, I fire them in my salt kiln which produces a rich depth of surface. I love making functional forms: bowls, vases, bottles and plates. I like knowing that someone enjoys their morning coffee from one of my mugs! 
About My Work: 
About My Work: My work is both functional and decorative. The pieces are made to be used and enjoyed. I believe a little of a potter’s soul is in each piece made. Using handmade things in our daily lives brings us in better contact with humanity. I am not opposed to machine-produced goods, but using handmade things adds depth and personal touch to an increasingly impersonal world. Hand-crafted items are a luxury in our time.

About My Work: When working in clay I am reminded of the connection to the ancient potters. Working with my hands, making pots that other people can use, is a great gift. I find it important to remember that we live with the hands of people caring for us, growing our food, weaving our clothes, building our shelters and making our pottery. I feel our hands are extensions of our hearts. 
About My Work: 
About My Work: In a world where concrete and asphalt seem to replacing soil and vegetation, pottery returns me to the earth. Throwing a pot on the wheel relaxes and bonds you to the spinning clay.

About My Work: I use color and form to create a mix of sensitivity, gracefulness and depth. What I strive for in making sculptures and vessels is to stay widely varied and to discover the continuing uniqueness in working with clay. I want my feelings to come through in each piece.

About My Work: My functional hand built work reflects my passion for all things whimsical. My favorite pieces merge form and function - they are artfully designed objects that can be used in everyday life. 
About My Work: 
About My Work: Because I came to pottery late in life, it is more a way of finding my bliss than of earning a living. It is a joy to find that people like my work and want to own my pieces, but pottery's main purpose in my life is to keep me centered.

About My Work: I work in stoneware, porcelain and raku clays, creating decorative and functional pottery. For me, clay begins on the wheel and is then altered by hand to achieve the look and design. The final control is left to the kiln atmosphere to finish the design with color.

About My Work: My love for the land and the seas has nurtured my work through the inclusion of organic elements such as seashells, birds, rocks and flowers. I work in a range of media including, porcelain, stoneware, terracotta, raku and primitive firings. Although I create sculpture, I delight in the traditional craft of the potter, producing objects for daily use.
