Description

I enjoy making large, coiled vessels the most. There is a calming, meditative way of working large and using coils. I also enjoy throwing and will soon be attempting to use a Korean Onggi wheel, which is a non-electric pottery wheel used for creating large vessels. My inspiration comes mostly from the ancient potters and ancient techniques used all over the world. I love Raku firing and barrel/pit firing, and the community of potters who perform these firings. – Kathy Verbeek

About The Artist

Kathy Verbeek

Kathy began her journey in clay almost 20 years ago in an evening adult class, while being a new mother in a northern town of Alberta, Canada. Clay soon became a medium that excited all aspects of Kathy’s personality. She loved the science , physicality and expression available in the firing process and clay itself. From these humble beginnings, she became a member of the Hill Potters Guild in Richmond Hill, ON, and enjoys the use of her own studio in Kingston, ON. She has really grown since taking FUSION’s mentorship (Creative Pathways) with Lesley McInally. Her other influences and mentors include Loren Kaplan and Angelo DiPetta.
