  • Three Ceramicists Influential to Me
    /HH0LGGOHPDQ 86$ During my 12-year career in ceramics, I have learned from many people – fellow students, teachers, and senior ceramics artists. I appreciate the valuable insights from all of them. There are three artists who have most influenced my work and career. The first was an early mentor and friend, the second was a famous and gracious Japanese master and the third artist is an American master. I would like to share their careers and influences on me, but first I should briefly explain my ceramic art. I create classic forms and use surface textures to give the work energy and vitality, resulting in art that is both pleasing and alive (Fig u re 1). I seek to create patterns and textures that emphasize the organic interplay between order and randomness found in Nature. I use multiple glazes to intensify the dynamic tension in my surfaces. Although functional, my work is often prized as decorative. More examples of my work can be seen on my website: www.LeeMiddleman.com. I met Gary Clarien when I took my first ceramics Figure 1 Lee Middleman, Pine Vase 2008 courses at the Palo Alto Art Center (PAAC) in California. Gary (Figure 2) was the Studio Supervisor for 35 years. Although he was not teaching courses at the time, he was available to students for questions. As an excited new student with an engineering background, I was eager to develop my skills and art. Gary saw that enthusiasm and became my mentor. His ability to demonstrate techniques and explain the underlying principles was exciting.

There are times when it’s an editor’s job to let others have the use of the hall.This is one of them.Tenisha Harrell ’07, who accepted Scripps’ offer last fall to continue her education here after Hurricane Katrina closed down her university, sent the message below to the Scripps community. Mary Shipp Bartlett Greetings to my fellow students, faculty, staff, and administrators, I am filled with several emotions as I send this e-mail of gratitude to each of you! For this day one year ago, September 14, 2005, I arrived at Scripps College from Xavier University in New Orleans to be welcomed with an enormous amount of warmth. Many families, students, children, homes, schools, churches, universities, and other institutions have not and perhaps may never recover from Hurricane Katrina. However, here I sit a year later blessed to: 1) have continued my education, 2) have shelter with food, 3) know where my family is, as they know where I am, 4) have a sound mind, body, with spirit, 5) be acclimated to the Scripps community smoothly due to openness/involvement, 6) have a better appreciation for life knowing that change is constant and sometimes without warning and 7) be encouraged to live a life that calls me to give above and beyond all that has been bestowed upon me.
