456: Courtney Martin on using resists to make complex glaze patterns
b'
Today on the\\xa0Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Courtney Martin. She uses resists to create strong geometric patterns on her forms. The blend of hard and soft edges is highlighted by her wood kiln, which lends the glazes a warm depth. In our interview we talk about learning pattern making from Mata Ortiz artists, hand building large forms, and expressing environmental values through the way she works. To see examples of her work, visit www.courtneymartinpottery.com.
