Mark A. Taylor • pottery & woodworking

Mark began throwing pottery in his teens at the Arts Center in Middletown, Ohio. He loved the opportunity to be around and learn from other artists…

Mark prefers the potter’s wheel and creates traditional shapes. The artistic aspect of his work comes with the non traditional firing methods and the exploration of combining traditional techniques with new creative ideas. He works extensively in the “Alternative Firing” methods of horsehair, saggar and raku pottery. These firing techniques produce pottery with unique and striking visual effects resulting in pieces that are truly “one of a kind”.
