These pieces are all hand-built,
using coils and slabs from stoneware clay. The majority of them are fired to
cone 5/6 with some fired to cone 10. They are all functional with food-safe
glazes.
The form and design are inspired
by patterns and textures in the natural world, especially sea-life, plants and
trees, and microscopic images of plant and animal tissues.
The artist, Linda Yeargin-Taylor,
lives in Venice, California with her husband and two daughters. Her background
is in marine biology, which continues to inspire her work.
