un·der·tow

/ˈəndərˌtō/

a current of water below the surface and moving in a different direction from any surface current.

an implicit quality, emotion, or influence underlying the superficial aspects of something and leaving a particular impression.

The Undertow series seeks to capture the abstract waterscape of its namesake. The speckled stoneware pieces are wheel thrown and upwards of twenty layers of glaze and oxides are painted on by hand. Most pieces are glazed fired multiple times (“dance with the devil”) to achieve their depth and movement.

Each piece varies and pays homage to the potter’s dialogue with the clay and surrender to the firing process. Stamped potter's mark for authenticity.
