Ceramics
Guild member since 1985
Lynda works exclusively in porcelain, a high fire white vitreous clay body which requires great skill of the potter. In addition to her one-of-a-kind and commissioned pieces, her work included a line of functional pottery. She throws each piece individually by hand. Her work incorporates a broad range of influences from throughout the history of ceramics, especially the classic porcelains of the Chinese Song Dynasty. Each piece is designed and made with great care and is intended to be used as well as contemplated. Lynda has a M.A. Degree in ceramics, has held several teaching positions, and has been shown nationally in shops, galleries, and exhibitions. She has received numerous awards for her work.
