Leonard Jones |
|
![]() |
Leonard Jones has lived all of his life in the same rural area of North Georgia, where he lives in an old farm house with a tin roof, no electricity or running water, and he doesn't drive or own a car. His talent for folk painting has been with him since childhood. His work is most often latex paint on sheets of old roofing tin gathered from old structures around the area. His choice of subject matter is often derived from his childhood, early life memories and experiences. His work is unique because of his choice of perspective - whereas most folk painters choose a head-on, two-dimensional approach, many of Leonard's works are seen from angles more akin to a cameraman. |

David Changer |

David Changer has been working with clay since the age of six. He went to Hampshire College where he graduated with a liberal arts degree in architecture and design. David approaches ceramics as a designer, generally through dozens of ideas until he refines the product to incorporate ergonomics, functionality, and style. Most of his work plays with classical lines and forms, and are designed to be both modern and classic. Each signed and dated piece is individually handcrafted on the potters' wheel by a master artisan, and the work is made from a high quality stoneware clay that has vitrified upon firing so that is will hold water with or without glaze, making it very functional. In many instances his glazes are designed to imitate traditional glazes or effects, while incorporating a more modern palette. |

Making pots is somewhat like playing golf. You mainly play against your earlier game. In John Ransmeier's work, he enjoys letting randomness into his work, having gravitated toward looser ways of making things and glazes that he couldn't control if he tried. He believes that his work gives him freedom to grow. His goal is to keep enough freshness in his work to allow new possibilities to take form. |
