This lidded urn is wheel thrown in two parts from low-fire white earthenware clay. The artist added a hand-sculpted red eyed tree frog to the lid. Once dry, the piece is bisque fired to approx. 1850 degrees Fahrenheit. This piece is now a creamy white onto which she painted many layers of multicolored underglazes. For the urn, the artist applies five layers of underglaze in chestnut brown with light yellow triangles. The legs are banded in black and white. On the lid, she paints five layers of a creamy light-yellow underglaze and a black and white checkered band. The frog is painted in careful detail. A blue glaze is added to the jar and lid's interiors. The piece is kiln fired for a final time.

Lisa Scroggins

"People often tell me that my work is unlike anything they have seen. Much of my work is thrown on the wheel, and then sculptural additions are added. These additions range from lizards, frogs, snakes and fish, to ivy, leaves and birds. "

Perhaps because Lisa Scroggins has lived mostly in urban settings, her creative thinking often turns to nature and organic forms. It seems only natural to her to sculpt from nature. The artist's love of ceramics began in high school and progressed as she attended the Rhode Island School of Design, and later, the Parsons School of Design in New York City.

Scroggins loves the tactile experience and the symmetry of hand-throwing vessels on the wheel, and the asymmetrical focus of adding small pieces of sculpture to the vessels. Each piece of Lisa Scroggins' work is created entirely by the artist's hand.

Lisa Scroggins' background in graphics shows through in each piece of ceramics with her love of patterns, bright colors, and use of composition.
