Lisa F. Bouvette

Gulfport, MS

Clay / Ceramics

Guild member since 2002

Living on the Gulf Coast, Lisa is inspired by the marches, bayous, and animal life of the area. At southwest Louisiana University and William Carey University, she studied ceramics, fine art, and art history. Her work includes wheel thrown pieces and small animal sculptures fired to cone 6 in an oxidation atmosphere. Her wheel thrown pieces are most often carved for an aged effect. She wax resists the pieces, then adds layers of slip and glazes to achieve a rich and unique surface. This process gives her glazes a muted, satiny watercolor quality.
