Lori Doolittle
Artist's Statement
Lori is a native West Virginian. She attended Parsons School of Design abroad program in France and graduated from West Virginia University with a B.F.A. in Ceramics.
“My figurative ceramic sculptures are about texture, color and a whimsical approach to human nature. They are hand built using red earthenware clay. Texture is created by carving or by embossing the surface with found objects. I attempt to convey an individual personality through posture, expression, and intricate detail. Each piece is under-glazed and bisque fired to 1828 degrees and then glazed with various oxides and fired a second time to 1970 degrees Fahrenheit.”
