688. a product of coal and steel

rust and corrosion
telltale signs of coal and steel
whispered in my art  🦊❤️

I’ve always felt that growing up in the coal and steel region of Western Pennsylvania has had a powerful impact on just about every aspect of my life.   My art has always reflected the grimy and gritty aspects of  the region and especially my experiences working in a steel mill and other factories.  I think that those influences are revealed in my two latest pottery vessels, FH#1 and FH#2. 🦊❤️
