Winter Elegance with Sculptural Vessels

Pots in Winter

As the colder months approach, I invite you to consider how a well-chosen piece of sculpture can transform your winter landscape. When placed outdoors, sculptural art takes on a dynamic life: through the cold months snow and wind accentuate the form, and ever-changing light creates a lively interplay between the natural world and the presence of the manmade.

Unlike terra cotta typically used in planters and other garden ware, the high-fire stoneware I make my vessels from is impervious to moisture and withstands the elements year-round. As the garden foliage recedes, the vessels step forward – their sculptural beauty fully revealed, adding an elegant, enduring presence to your outdoor space.

Whether under a blanket of snow or against the starkness of bare winter branches, these pieces become powerful focal points, drawing the eye and bringing depth and warmth to the landscape even in the coldest months.

Now is the perfect time to consider adding one of these pieces to your garden or collection. Imagine how it will elevate and enhance your garden this winter — and for many seasons and years to come.

Warm regards, 
Steve
