Description
About Jonathan Hyde Hamilton
My work is influenced by 19th century American folk pots, especially those made in the South, medieval European pots, and both Japanese and Korean folk pots. I grew up visiting pots in the Freer Museum.
Biography
I’m a self-taught potter making functional ware using clay I dig in Hampshire County. My several glazes include traditional ash glaze. The work is fired in both oxidation and reduction atmospheres. I throw my pots using a kick wheel. I’ve been making pots for 50 years.
