February 11 - Mary Hindman

As promised, the artists are getting closer to my home, and this is my first Oregon artist. Hindman is a ceramic artist whose work focuses on texture and line. I'm particularly drawn to her hanging pieces that have an organic quality.

Another interesting element in her work is the use of unusual materials that she pairs with clay. It looks like she attaches rocks and metal to the clay before it's fired. The combinations are striking.
