Sarah Reesor Ceramics

Sarah Reesor Ceramics I'm an Austin-based functional potter working from my garage studio. The process is as valuable as the end product!

My wheel-thrown ceramics explore the space where function and decoration meet, using underglaze painting and carved detail. Sarah Reesor graduated in 2009 from Southwestern University in Georgetown, Texas, where she studied with Patrick Veerkamp and Chris Campbell, and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Ceramics. From 2009-2012 Sarah worked out of the studio of Ryan McKerley in Austin, Texas, an

d in 2012 she moved to South Lake Tahoe, California, where she currently is working from a home studio, and from Ogres-Holm Pottery in Carson City, Nevada. Sarah's ceramics are almost exclusively thrown, and she works primarily in Laguna B-mix, cone six. Sarah is particularly interested in various forms of surface decoration, especially painting with underglazes, and in exploring the boundaries between functional and decorative ceramics.

Pour test: the final test a teapot has to pass! Faceted teapot take 2 is a little drippy, but worlds better than take 1!

I’m a firm believer in pot bottoms that are so smooth you can rub them on your face lol! It’s a process, I use 3 grits wet sanding to get my lovely smooth bases!

Outlining is the most satisfying part of the painting process! At least as long as my applicator doesn’t clog up!

Gotta love a good handle install! My favorite part is the initial stamp- it’s very satisfying!
