Stone House

Distinctive Stoneware and Porcelain Pottery

Marilyn Grizzard has always been attracted to the simplicity of functional pottery, particularly large bowls. She works in both stoneware and porcelain, creating functional items that feel at home in the hand. More recently, she has been inspired to create more fanciful characters. These Beasties challenge her creativity and tickle her imagination. They are altered and carved clay forms, adorned with embellishments of beads, wire and found objects. Beasties are either porcelain or stoneware with skins, furs and feathers of high-fired reduction glazes or Raku.
