The Potter - Linda Holliday

I am a dedicated potter creating functional wares in my home studio located in the Pillsbury State Forest in Central Minnesota. Using both mid-range porcelain and dark stoneware clay bodies, my pots are wheel-thrown or slab-built and altered using a variety of techniques.

With generous support from the Five Wings Art Council and the Minnesota State Arts Board, I am currently creating a new customized mid-range glaze palette and exploring a variety of surface design and glaze application techniques.

I believe I was called to clay since the beginning of my lifetime - or possibly many lifetimes. To see a beautiful pot is a wonder, to touch a beautiful pot is a gift, to use a beautiful pot is a blessing, and to make a beautiful pot... well... for me, is just a necessary lifetime pursuit!

Thank you for your interest.
