Artist Listing
Cole Art Pottery was established in 2000 in Sumner, Iowa. My creations include functional and semi-functional, wheel-thrown and electric fired stoneware pottery using a variety of glazing techniques. My pottery is made of a red clay; stained with iron oxide washes to give an “earthy” appearance. I specialize in platter, bowls, vases, bottlenecks and lidded forms. Recent pottery involves the imbedding of marine fossils that I collect near Rockford, IA. My pottery is shown in a number of galleries in Iowa and Minnesota and I participate in numerous art shows in Iowa and Wisconsin.
