Illustrated Mugs

$20

The patterns on these illustrated mugs are drawn from historic textile patterns. The detail is hand drawn onto the thrown ceramic mugs with an underglaze that gives the surface a subtle texture. The outside is then glazed with a glossy clear over the white stoneware clay. The pottery coffee mug was thrown in my pottery studio in Columbus, Ohio. It is food, microwave and dishwasher safe.

I create thrown and slab-built stoneware that is grounded on my formal training in Architectural Engineering. Elements of buildings and the materials used to create them continue to fascinate me. My interest in this is continually renewed as I explore the ways in which clay can imitate some of these rich, tactile surfaces. Applying the basic principles of engineering to a medium as malleable as clay is a constant challenge and one that has kept my interest for over 12 years.

My most recent work has used drawings and photographs to create intricate images. Several of my pieces draw influence from recent trips to Chicago, Japan, and the Czech Republic. The surface of each piece is embellished with architectural details, images and found hardware, duplicated from plaster press molds. The clay is glazed with commercial glazes and washes to bring out the surface texture.

    Working with Meaghan to make my salt pig, could have not been a better experience. She answered all emails promptly and was open to any color changes I chose. I would recommend her to anyone wanting quality pottery and with the added bonus of being able to personalize it. I am very happy with the end result!
