Marti’s Bio
I am a lifelong resident of Toledo, Ohio with a BS in Art Education from Bowling Green State
University and a Masters in Art Education from the University of Toledo. Much of my graduate work was done at Arrowmont Schooi of Arts and Crafts in Gatlinburg, Tennessee in cramics and fiber arts.
My earlier work in fiber arts (silk painting, quilting, batik and direct dye techniques) has been the foundation of my ceramic work. Images are drawn, carved, and stamped on to the clay surface. I apply layers of color and pattern using underglazes, stains and glazes. I use color as a strong component of my designs and images. My current work has focused on three dimensional sculptural forms. I have a ceramics studio in my home and can be reached at [email protected].
