I featured this artist last year but I’m fascinated by the latest designs.

Larry Watson: My work has a very unique twist. I put the fun and funky in functional! Although obviously influenced by my natural surroundings and various travels abroad, my pottery has a strong human/spiritual metaphor to it. I feel that the things that happen to us, good and bad, are what develop character and spiritual strength. And so it is with my pottery, and the distortions I carve into the pristine forms become the most interesting character.
