Kirsten Brünjes (Bremen, Germany)
http://www.kuenstlerinnen-bremen.de/kunst/bruenjes/ (German)
(Strange, simplified forms of animals, often with textured surfaces)
(Stoneware) (Just click on the thumbnails for larger images.)
Velarde, Kukuli (Born in Peru, lives in the USA)
http://www.kukulivelarde.com/ (Adult content)
(Figural Ceramic sculptor and painter) (The sculptures are often of
assemblages of small figures.) (To get to the ceramic sculpture hover
the mouse pointer over the thumbnails strip and move right. It is
tricky to get the mouse to click on one image in the moving strip
before the next one comes along.)
Charlie Tefft Pottery (Guilford College, Greenboro, NC, USA)
(Professor)
http://www.ctpottery.com/
(Sophisticated functional pottery fired in a gas reduction atmosphere

(Exaggeration and the bizarre in clay sculpture and vessels lead to a
distinct feeling of surrealism.)
Enjoy! -Helen
