This lidded urn is wheel thrown in two parts from low fire white earthenware clay. The artist added the 5 hand built legs to the bottom and a hand sculpted Jackson Chameleon to the lid, paying attention to realism and meticulous detail. Once dry, the vessel is bisque fired to approx. 1850 degrees Fahrenheit. This piece is now a creamy white onto which she paints many layers of multicolored underglazes. Onto the urn Scroggins has applied 5 layers of black underglaze with red dots and blue centers. The legs are banded in black and white. On the lid she painted 5 layers of a red underglaze and a black and white checkered band atop a multicolored band. The chameleon is painted in careful detail with hundreds of dots to create color and texture. The interior is glazed blue and a clear, gloss glaze is applied over all with the exception of the chameleon. The artist choose to leave the lizard a true matte finish with a spot of gloss in the eye to create realism and contrast to the vessel. Her signature is on the bottom. The piece is kiln fired again. Limited edition of 30.

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.
