Hi everyone, here are some more places to visit. The first on is huge, so be warned!
Women Artists site
http://www.uwrf.edu/history/women/womena1.html
Subject: "Women Artists Through Time"
Good selection of images by 799 women artists.
Fair representation of workers in clay, especially pre-1980.
These include a number of native-american women potters.
Lacks search by media, so you must browse for names you know or take "pot luck"!

Judith Ann Cooper (Gloucester, MA, USA)
http://www.jcooperstudio.com/index.html
(Clay work as psychic process)
Any hand building processes may be used as her feelings may move her.
The results are intriguing and attractive three-dimensional equivalents of
free-form drawing or painting.
In fact, this artist works as often in pastels on paper as she does in clay.
A member of the Cape Ann (Gloucester, MA, USA) Artisans Studio Tour.

The above site came to my notice as a result of a private post by Clayarter
Marty Morgan.
Marty, who is on the same studio tour, is working on a web site of his own.

Hurry up, with the web site, Marty! :-))
