MEET THE MAKER: D.D. Lecky

“Clay is magical. It’s a humble substance but capable of preserving a record of time and culture. I think about this a lot when I make my pots. It’s why I press leaves into the surfaces. I’m making modern fossils that preserve the memory of an ephemeral thing that is only meant to last for a moment. In the clay though it remains, covered in glass, for the rest of time, a vessel for your favorite dinner or your morning tea.”

MEET THE MAKER: Lauren Braney

“My ideas and process are driven by memories and experiences of everyday life. Throughout life, I feel we all make connections which eventually can pass us by. I try to capture these personal moments through the imagery on my work. The subject of my hand-drawn transfers develops from my love for the outdoors; whether it’s discovering wildflowers on a hike, plants within my home or paddling down the river. Each surface featured on my work represents a pause from these experiences from which each moment is valued. My
simplified nature drawings became an integral part in the process to bring my functional pots to life. I strive to make functional work that brings outdoor imagery into the home.”

MEET THE MAKERS: Tiffany Yates & Sarah Hanson

Meet ceramic artists Tiffany Yates and Sarah Hanson, sharing a tent at this year’s market!

Tiffany Yates is a maker, ceramist, and illustrator working out of Studio 23 at LibertyTown Arts Workshop. Her practice draws inspiration from medical and biological sciences, blending anatomy, biology, and humor to highlight the beauty, oddity, and wonder of the natural world.

Sarah Hanson is an architect and potter based right here in Fredericksburg. Bringing her structural eye to clay, she crafts functional pieces featuring sgraffito—carving through layers of slip to create intricate patterns and images meant to be enjoyed every day.

MEET THE MAKER: Rodrigue Studios

Meet potter Kevin Rodrigue, the artist behind Rodrigue Studios!

“Kevin Rodrigue began his ceramic education during a four-year stint at West Virginia University. During his time at university, he studied all forms and styles of ceramics, finally landing on a traditional Asian style. Towards the end of his intensive studies, he traveled six weeks to China to work and study in some of the remote pottery villages of Xian. He was able to work with the villagers to learn about the traditional celadon glazes, their production methods, and primitive coal firing techniques.

Upon leaving West Virginia University, Kevin began slowly advancing his skills and techniques. In 2017 Kevin formed Rodrigue Studios and he began working full time as a potter. Rodrigue Studios sells in craft shows up and down the east coast, and the current working studio is at Liberty Town Arts Workshop. His current work consists of traditional and altered Asian forms with similar celadons like those that he studied whilst in China. He also teaches several pottery classes and workshops and has won awards at shows such as “Judges Choice Award” in August of 2021 at the Mt. Gretna Outdoor Art Show and “Booth of Distinction” in July of 2022 at the Central Pennsylvania Festival of the Arts.”
