Expressive Form | American Ceramic Art
A substantial glazed ceramic vessel by David Bates, featuring animal-like faces, generous handles, and blue, gray, and black tones. Sculpted ears and a painted spiral inside the vessel reward a closer look, giving the work a playful, expressive personality.
Allow it space on a console or pedestal, where its scale and sculptural details can be appreciated. A compelling focal point for an interior that welcomes art with character.
