BIOGRAPHY
Lisa Knebel makes wheel-thrown white stoneware functional ceramics fired in a high-fired in a reduction kiln. Occasionally she carves or stamps a piece to add a design or texture.
Knebel finds inspiration in nature including the designs and colors of seashells. Most of her works have a spiral pattern. Sometimes she creates the spiral in the wet clay as it spins on the potter’s wheel. Other times she creates it with glazes and wax resist.
Lisa Knebek in script scratched into raw clay around foot or in center of bottom of pot.
