John O'Brien

Each piece is hand thrown on a potter’s wheel. I pay particular attention to the way a vessel flows – forming fine shapes and fluid lines. I stretch the limits of the clay and my imagination especially when creating larger scale pieces. After a piece has been formed and has dried to the right consistency I incise, carve and/or add colored porcelain to create a dimensional scene that flows around the vessel. When it comes to glazing I use under glazes, engobes, mason stains, glazes, over glazes and enamels. Many of the glazes I use I have formulated myself. I only use high quality materials. The clays I use consist of porcelain or a special mix that resembles porcelain and stoneware. All are high fire clays (2232°F - 2345°). All pieces are a unique piece of art – one of a kind and signed.
