This one of a kind playful teapot is based on The Wonderful Wizard of Oz which is an American children's novel written by author L. Frank Baum. Various facets of the story are sculpted in shape of the teapot layout with the city of OZ as the teapot's lid. Quite a conversation piece.
While this piece of pottery is functional, it is recommend to be used as a sculptural piece of art and to handled with care.
Wizard of Oz Tea Pot
I love to play in the clay.
Since 1980, I have been “playing in clay” in a variety of techniques, styles, and uniqueness. I am a combination of self-taught, co-op group and some schooling through the college system. (Although I do have a BSBA in management and an MEd in Educational Leadership but that is the boring stuff.)
I love to experiment with different techniques and glazes along with a variety of styles and designs to keep things fresh. Doing the same thing can keep an artist from growing both personally and in their art. I will do a series of designs such as my monsters’ collection or my sculpture collection to explore how far I can push myself in quality, technique, and perfection of the message within the art form.
I hope the people who buy my work feel the joy and fun of each piece and will enjoy having it in their home or give as a gift to a special someone.
