Steven McGovney
"If it doesn't make you smile, why bother?"
The work is influenced by a sense of humor about the human condition, with a touch of the absurd.
Steven McGovney sculpts the original piece, makes molds from the sculpture, slip casts and hand builds. After the first firing, underglaze colors and delicately scribed highlights are added. Fired again, the piece is dipped in clear glaze and sent to the kiln one last time.
Otis Art Institute BFA MFA, and 35 years in the studio, learning by trial and error, mostly error.
