Janine Schwendinger

My pieces are made with B clay and are wheel thrown, hand built or a combination of both techniques. I use slip trailing, carving and sgraffito that I design as it’s applied to decorate much of my work. Hand pulled handles and hand built accents are also used on many of my pieces. Nature inspires me, and I incorporate nature into my work both through images, as well as using things from nature directly in my work, such as wire wrapped crystal and agates. I fire to cone 6 in oxidation.
