Kitson was born in Sydney in 1987 and attended the National Art School, Sydney. From there she was offered a artist residency in China which further developed her curiosity in the art of ceramic making and is now where she practices her art making; half her time is spent in Jingdezhen learning

I have chose to tell the story, and achievements of well renown artist Peter Morgan. Peter morgan is 33 years old. He grew up in Abingdon, Va with his parents Ed, and Helen Morgan. Peter graduated from Abingdon high school in 1996. Peter had never taken a ceramics class until his sophomore year in college. His college professor at Roanoke College inspired him during his time taking ceramics to go the length with it. He went on to continue his education at Roanoke College in Salem, Va. He later received his Bachelor of Arts degree from this university. He then went on to receive his Bachelor of Fine Arts degree from the California College of Arts and Crafts in San Francisco, Ca. He also received his Master of Fine Arts degree at Alfred University

Richard Fairbanks, although many times overlooked, was an important American ceramist. He was known as a "loner" and because of this he was never really appreciated for his talent. Fairbanks was greatly influence by his professors. Professor Paul Bonifas, who taught at the University of Washington, was one who left a huge impact on Fairbanks work. Fairbanks created a system of sketching pottery profiles, which stemmed from Bonifas’ teachings, as a mean of "thinking on paper." This approach to pottery through sketching was a crucial element that separated Fairbanks from many other Asian-inspired American peers. Although, Fairbanks was a wheel thrown expert, he continued to "think on

Harradine was always careful to keep his domestic life private, therefore outside of his professional work as a Doulton figure modeller, little has been published. Those who knew him said he was a man of simple, but often unconventional tastes. He loved games such as cricket, shove halfpenny, and snooker, and that he liked to amuse his family with his conjuring tricks. His friends valued him for his broad outlook on life, his warm humanity, and these are reflected in his work. His favourite artists were the English painter Augustus John (1878-1961), and the French sculptor Aristides Maillol (1861-1944) he thought of them as wonderful, he also said to have admired the English sculptor Jacob Epstein (1880-1959). In his later life, he made some almost life-size sculptures in a style of

Australian ceramics has experienced an exciting evolution over the past 60 years, when ceramics was first offered as a full-time course at RMIT in 1947. At that time, the “high priests” of pottery were Shoji Hamada o f Japan, and Bernard Leach in the UK, who shared similar philosophies and aesthetic values. Leach wrote “The Potters Book” which was to become the ‘bible’, or text of choice for the many tertiary institutes around Australia who were opening up ceramic courses to satisfy the growing demand for training in what was seen to be an alternative career path in Australian arts during the post WWII years.

The appearance of Beaker Bell pottery in Europe is one ceramic innovation which is still not fully understood today (Waddell 2010, 121) as their distribution is irregular stretching from Hungary to Ireland. Several Beaker Bell pottery types have been identified in Britain and Ireland; those of different sizes, ware type (ibid). Many of the pottery that has survived in Ireland are those which have been used for burial, although also used for drinking, storage and cooking (Gibson 2002, In: Waddell 2010, 121). Residue analysis showed the pottery was used for holding alcohol and drugs, but as the pots themselves would not hold liquids for long it was like a prehistoric drinking challenge (Guerra-Doce 2006, 248). Pottery sherds have been uncovered from a number of settlements in Ireland; Dublin, Limerick, Meath and Tyrone to name a few locations. It was only when wedge tombs were excavated in the 1930s that there was actual proof of Beaker Bell existence in Ireland and from that it was assumed the people were an important component of the Irish population at that time (Waddell 2010, 129) and they were also recognised as the people that introduced the understanding of metal working to Ireland. The “Beaker Folk” are all connected by their similar techniques and artefacts but their geographical location seems to be an influence in their day to day practices, for example the stark difference in Irish and British Beaker Bell funerary rituals (Waddell 2010, 130). It seems the one

In 1919 a potter gave Augusta some clay and she modeled a group of figures that she entered in the West

As a self-taught potter, I have been working with clay for nearly 2 years. I make primarily functional wares fired to cone 10(2345°f) using porcelain or stoneware clay. I obtained a degree in political science from Winona State University in 2015. I am highly influenced by my experiences as a production potter, other midwestern ceramic artists, and my rural/military upbringing.

Later in his life, he went on many expeditions that usually lasted three months or so. He said his favorite expedition that he went on was the on where he passed through Yellow Stone National Park. Later he met John Robertson. And instantly making a partnership. Selling a various amount of furs and firearms. One expeditions he traveled on he had no idea the he would meet his wife!

so future generations will never forget. It took Treister five years to complete the sculptures, including an extensive research in Jerusalem’s work because he wanted to seek a better understanding on how his sculpture would tell the story of the Holocaust and represent the Jewish religion and community. “No one can comprehend the number of six million or the fact that each of the six million was a person, with family, friends, and a full life... each enduring the most excruciating agony every second, minute, hour, and day, of the Holocaust. The immensity of this tragedy is infinite. To express it artistically, impossible ... but I had to try” (Treister). Through his architecture and design, Treister succeeded in building an interactive memorial that connects people to the suffering that the holocaust created. By doing so he also brings people closer to the Jewish religion and the history of the Jewish community.

John roger’s is the famous name very popular in all over the world as an American sculptor whose style and production methods shows an inventory path to the modern art. His art was very popular with middle-class art collectors in the 19th century and defines the feelings of nostalgia and a longing for simpler times, helped Americans come to terms with the contentious issues of the Reconstruction period following the Civil War in between 1859 to 1892.

He married Dorothy Plackett (1756–1807), of Hackleton, on 10 June 1781. In 1783, having been persuaded of the principles of the Baptist denomination, he was baptized by John Ryland (1753–1825), in Northampton. While continuing to practise as a shoemaker he preached to the Baptist congregation at Earls Barton, near Northampton, and in his spare time studied Latin, Greek, and Hebrew. In 1785 he moved to a residential Baptist pastorate a few miles away at Moulton, though still needing to augment his income by schoolmastering and shoe making.
