Michael Newsome Ceramics is the culmination of the years of working in restaurants coupled with a lifetime of making art. The inspiration for my pottery comes from cooking in professional kitchens and the color palette draws from the nature of the pacific northwest. All work begins on the potter’s wheel making each piece consistent yet unique with a handmade feel. The pieces are designed to have a light balanced weight while still being very durable. The glazes are created to express a diverse color palette while still maintaining a cohesive feel. Each piece is formed to feel comfortable in the hand and be smooth to the touch. The shapes and sizes are inspired by a range of recipes and are designed to enhance the visual appeal of these foods as well as be the perfect shape in which to consume them. My intent is to create objects that have the ability to elevate the everyday, turning routines into rituals. The goal is for each piece to find a home where it can be used and appreciated daily and for years to come.
