Bob Bonnet
Bob started his pottery career in 1974 and continued making functional ware for 6 years before he decided to suspend it for a more regular income. in 2001, he returned to the work he truly loves.
He is mostly self-taught with a few ceramics courses thrown in. Making a living as a carpenter, handyman, plumber, electrician, construction company owner and operator, and as a salesman, has provided him with a wide variety of skills and experience that he can bring to the physical and technical demands of working with clay.
Bob says, "I want the large size of the piece, the well-crafted form and the bold decoration, to be one-of-a-kind pieces that will be displayed prominently and make a dramatic statement."
Bob incorporates intricate, yet subtle details into his pottery that catch the viewer's eye and coerce you to take a closer look.
It most of his work, he embosses the clay with various materials that allow for a textured appearance.
