LAURIE SAVAGE  IS OUR ARTIST OF THE MONTH

Laurie’s favorite quote is by David Shaner, one of the world’s most famous potters.  “The critical aspect of any work of art is the spirit in which it is made.  The soul of the artists cannot successfully be anything but of oneself.”  That is SUCH a true statement,” said Laurie.  “When I am creating, and focus ONLY on what I am doing and absolutely nothing else, my eyes, my hands, and my spirit come together as one; and the finished art piece speaks of that forever.  I hope when you see my work, you will feel the same way.”

Laurie has been working and creating in clay for over 25 years.  Laurie’s clay art has evolved from functional stoneware and porcelain pieces into sculpture and then simultaneously into combining the two forms.  Her most recent work in clay has been in creating sculptural teapots that are low-temperature fired, as Raku, Pit-fired, or Salt-fired.  Laurie’s LIFEMASKS are usually Raku fired; she believes this captures forever the true embodiment of one’s soul.

Fifteen years ago, Laurie began creating jewelry.  She has used her clay artistry for unique bead making, and is creating necklaces, bracelets, and earrings incorporating many gemstones, fossils, and nature’s bounty of all treasures into her jewelry.

You, the Public, are invited to the Artist Reception for Laurie Savage, Fort Wayne Art Source, 2812 Lower Huntington Road, Sunday, March 17th 2pm to 4pm.  Refreshments served to those who are wearing green!
