Sarah Christensen
| I have been working in clay for about 15 years,
focusing on functional wares, and art pieces. I strive to find the balance in
my work between usable object and art piece. |

There is nothing better than finding a pot that works
perfectly, and brings a sense joy visually. Decoration and design
have always been an inspiration to me. Pattern from rugs, textiles, natural objects,
mosaics, painting and printmaking, all inform my use of image and color. |
| For me, making functional objects is a convenient way
to surround my life with beauty, an everyday aesthetic experience. It is a way to
honor the everyday, and to connect to a great tradition held by most cultures, that
believed that a functional object is always made better with a little ( or a lot) of
embellishment. It is often the smallest things that can have the greatest affect on
our lives. Sarah can be reached at:
