Artists

These are various artist who I have encountered in real life, or whose work I just like.

Joshua Longo:  Joshua makes wonderful disturbing felt monsters.  I fell in love with his work when it was featured on Boingboing.net.  In July 2008, we were part of a show at the Society for Contemporary Crafts together.

Toby Atticus Fraley: Toby was the third artist in the SCC show.  He builds incredible robots out of old technology harvested from ebay.

Priscilla Mouritzen:  She’s a wood firer up in Denmark, who I’ve been lucky enough to cross paths with a few times.  She does delicate pinchpot teabowls, and also has a great blog about the ceramics process and woodfiring.

Dan Funderburgh: He’s my big brother. He’s also an amazing designer and artist working in NYC. Think tight patterns influence by Victorian wallpaper and Mexican cut paper decorations.

Steve Sauer: Steve’s a woodfired potter/ sculpture located in Port Orchard, Washington. He makes amazing traditional Japanese Teabowls, along with very large somewhat geometric scultpures.

Justin Hilgrove: This guy is a great Seattle artist. His work is very whimsical and influence by cartoons. Wonderful robot teddy bears, and such good things.
