Carol Long, potter, has long been a favorite of mine. Here are some of the reasons:
In Tandem Gallery's Carol Long pieces
I'm so glad to have the internet so I can see, and share, these beauties.
Oh, late to posting a photo of one of her works.
Today's quote:
When you experience mercy, you learn things that are hard to learn otherwise. You see things you can’t otherwise see; you hear things you can’t otherwise hear. You begin to recognize the humanity that resides in each of us. |

She is an artist in ceramics.
The Charlie Cummings Gallery is hosting her, and said this:
Carol Long's wild pottery brings together dramatic movement both in form and surface, a rich and thoughtful color palette, and the artist's phenomenal creative mind in an Art Nouveau fantasy that leaves us simply astonished by its beauty. Carol is relentlessly fearless in the studio, ever trying new designs and ideas while tweaking and developing familiar ones. Each time we unpack a collection of Carol's work we ooh and ahh with wonder and delight, and this collection is a fine example of the kind of ceramics that makes us do that. A Carol Long pot is a breathtaking focal point and conversation piece in the home. We all need one, or two, or three.
