Stephen Hawes: Medium/Large Bowl

About The Artist

Stephen Hawes

Stephen Hawes took his first class in clay at the Waterloo Potters’ Workshop. He was hooked. Subsequently he took courses at Sheridan College, Sir Sanford Fleming College and has attended many classes and workshops. Since 1987, he has been making wheel-thrown and hand-built functional pottery. He uses a porcelaneous stoneware. Marks are made in the clay and then decorated with slips, underglazes and glaze. Through the use of colour and design, the pots Stephen makes are visually appealing. Influences from his earlier career as a microbiologist are evident. He is also influenced by abstract paintings and “road construction paintings” found on urban streets. Stephen lives in Waterloo, Ontario. He is a member of the Waterloo Potters’ Workshop, A Mess of Potters, Fusion and Craft Ontario.
