handmade by Amy Higgason
I would describe my pottery as fine art with an everyday purpose — a marriage of function and expression with a nod to the natural world. I’ve always loved to draw. My earliest subject was flowers. First with crayon, then with ink, and now on clay. When I learned to throw pots, I instinctively began covering them with images. Drawing on three-dimensional forms has fascinated me for more than 25 years. I work in several styles using various decoration techniques including carving, stamping and sgraffito. I gather inspiration from the plants and animals that surround my home in rural northern Wisconsin. Moving to the woods was instrumental in the development of my personal style. I carve and stamp clay with unplanned abandon — striving to make my marks loose and spontaneous — as if they grew from the piece itself.

These decorative stoneware dishes are intentional, functional, one-of-a-kind objects. The greatest compliment I receive is hearing that a piece I’ve made has a special spot in someone’s home, but is also used at their table.
