A determination to create original Art. A quest for beauty. A love of earth and clay. All led Dan Skinner to invent new ceramic techniques, innovative graceful forms, and sculptural realism that have become his trademark. His works include human and animal forms, as well as inanimate objects and large rare vases.

The Sculptural Excellence of Dan Skinner...
Similar to ancient man, Dan Skinner slowly, meticulously, hand builds pinch pots from a single lump of clay. Pinching, pressing and stretching, hour after hour, until the clay evolves and takes life. He creates exquisite art out of passion for clay, the primal medium, the connection to Mother Earth. large, aesthetic pots are masterfully sculpted into elegant works of art, each showing startling newness, melding a conscious rebirth of ancient techniques with bold, modern innovation.
