Artisan: Pots with Presence
Melissa Greene's vessels hold stories of travel and home

Potter Melissa Greene starts with 14 pounds of white earthenware to create her large but graceful pots. Although they are all similar in size, they sing with beautiful individuality. Greene decorates the pots in motifs from home and abroad using color and a fine point pen to incise outlines. The careful balance of narrative and decorative elements combine to give these vessels an earthy appeal.
