Mark Gordon
has been a potter for 35 years. In 2007, he started making bonsai
pots. These recent pots are high-fired reduction stoneware
[2400 degrees] - strong and durable, impervious to weather. His
wheel-thrown and hand-built bonsai forms are evolving, with a
current emphasis on unglazed ovals and accent pots. He mixes his
own clay, incorporating local clay dug in his backyard in California
[1995-99] and North Carolina [1999-present].
