I've been exposed to ceramics for awhile having a parent that is an art teacher with a focus in ceramics. Yet I take this for granted, putting off finding the time to keep up with practice and joined this class to regain a feel for the area of craft. I enjoy most about the area is textural qualities that can be achieved and seems to best suit smooth organic forms. The picture is a set of dishes by Karen Morgan, an artist from Kilkenny, Ireland and I like best the almost liquid-like quality added to them where the side fold over which also appears to be functional as a place to carry the piece.
