This vase is created from white earthenware clay. The vessel is first wheel thrown, then trimmed to further refine the shape, then the bees are added. They are sculpted with meticulous detail, and placed so that it looks like they have just landed on the piece. Veins in their wings and tiny hairs on their bodies are etched. The vessel is then bisque fired before 5 layers of deep turquoise underglaze are brushed on with a small blue triangle pattern painted in a lake blue underglaze on top of turquoise. The bees are under glazed in deep yellow and black and details are etched into the black to further their realism. The base is underglazed in sharp black stripes and a clear gloss glaze is covering all, inside and out. Each piece is unique. Slight variations in composition, dimensions, and colors may occur.
  • Glossy finish
  • My colors are from hand brushed underglaze, built up in 5 or 6 layers for deep, opaque color. The pattern is painted over background color and a clear, gloss glaze is painted on in 3 layers over all.

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.
