Ceramic Art

I have been creating ceramic art for nearly 30 years, oh no I must be getting old!  Besides smashing things in clay I was a medical photographer at Georgetown University, photographing body parts, yuck!  After that I was a computer programmer and opened an art department at a contracting firm.  The memories of this time frame were later reflected in clay referred to as Ugly Heads, blah, blah, blah... all mouth and no ears.  My daughter Stephanie has joined me creating Ugly Heads as well, I guess it runs in the family.  The Ugly Heads and faces are available in the traditional ceramic wood look and new stone like finish. 

Digital lithographs are images of original impressions in clay. They are printed on a classic linen or Irish linen paper using archival quality inks.  Two of the originals in clay and digital lithographs are archived permanently at the Santa Barbara Museum of Natural History.

All the impressions originate in stoneware clay. They are a recording of time.  Delicate details of nature and images of faces are forever captured in clay.  The impressions are designed to be hung on the wall or displayed on a table top.  The clay pieces are not to be used to serve food, it is art.  To clean the impressions, dust or gently wash with water and a mild soap. 

Take a break, have some fun and see the impressions in person at the Maryland Renaissance Festival.  Stop by my merchant shop to say hey and take home a lasting memory of the festival and days gone by.
