Searching for Simplicity -- Making the Quietest Pots with the Loudest Voices

This workshop will be a demonstration/hands-on format where the artist and participants will travel on an exploration of wheel thrown pot making, focusing on methods that will create a clear, organic and loose aesthetic.  Discussion will include the ideas of the quiet and the subtle in functional pottery, with form articulation pointing at simple but strong pots.  The artist will also share his experience with making a life and living from sharing his pots with others.
