The Lopez Library is pleased to feature the clay and porcelain pottery of Ann Vandervelde. Her show, titled “A Painter Works in Clay” will run from May 18th – June 29th, 2018. Please stop by the library to see the show.
In the artist’s own words: “Clay has become a wonderful extension of my 2-dimensional art. I’m able to layer, pull, mold the clay in ways I cannot do with painting. The results are sometimes functional, sometimes not. I work to master the wheel formations, but once done, I love to distort so that function can become artistic, whimsical. A plate can be more than a plate. A tea cup can remind one of Alice having tea with the queen.” – Ann Vandervelde
