Ceramics
A couple times a year my friend Eileen talks me into doing some ceramics, if it wasn’t for her I probably would never get around to making stuff with clay, so thanks Eileen for the motivation to do so. The Title of this piece is Vincent Van Gough’s Rodent Twin in a Parallel Universe, this year I will be participating in a mug and small works show at the Pence Gallery, which will also be having a larger ceramic exhibition there as well.
This show comes right on the heels of the big clay conference (CCACA) at the John Natsoulas Gallery. If your thing is ceramics Davis is definitely the place to go this month to see some great ceramic art. Follow the links and check it out!

Ruth Shelton 12/21/24 – 01/08/10
Ruth Shelton was an incredible artist, activist , friend and student of the Short Center North, passed away on Friday January 8th, 2010. Ruth did multiple paintings and art shows while @ Short Center North, painting in an impressionist style. Because of Ruth’s disabilities she did her whole catalog of work with a specially constructed headset. Ruth’s perseverance and determination to suceed is an inspiration to us all and she will be greatly missed .
