Today you get an extra artist of the day thrown in just for fun as I’ve been dying to share the work of Chandra Stubbs with you. I’m loving the combination of felt and clay.
These pieces are hand made needle felted Merino wool encased in extruded and hand thrown porcelain. Clear celadon glaze, gas fired to cone 9.
The following are slab constructed stoneware clay with paper clay and felt accents. Shino glazed with raw ash application, gas fired to cone 10 in a reduction atmosphere. Hand needle felted Merino wool accents.
Here’s her bio:
“Over the past twenty years I have evolved from a third generation production potter to mixed media fine art sculpture. My current work combines stoneware and porcelain clay with my love of needle felted wool. I like the control and detail needle felting allows me. I am able to create wonderful texture and pops of color. The wool compliments the hard surface of the clay and I find the combination both familiar and comforting. I show my work at fine craft shows and art venues across the United States. I am a current member of the American Craft Council.”

I love these!
