Jen McCurdy is a true master of her craft.  She uses wheel thrown porcelain to form unique sculptures of great beauty which evoke the philosophy of Georgia O'Keefe.

 
McCurdy uses her potter's wheel to form her vessels.  She then carves them while they are in a leather-like state.  They are then fired to produce unbelievably hard,  translucent vessels full of energy & counter-point.  Each vessel's surface creates an exciting chiaroscuro effect of light & shadow.

 
McCurdy has shown her work at major craft fairs & museums throughout the United States.
