This sublime mid-size Jar was created by two highly skilled craftsmen and artists. From the start, Tom Coleman had enviable throwing skills with porcelain. Frank Boyden’s work almost always illustrates the landscape and wildlife of his coastal world and enlivens his pots with these drawings, hoping to inspire his viewers to follow the animal’s movements around the vessel—which is exactly the case with Jar. Boyden’s dark brown line drawings swirl about the flat top of this contemporary ginger jar form. One can almost see the evolution or growth stages—the life and death of a fish swimming and spiraling in watery waves. Coleman’s exquisite glowing form shows off Boyden’s drawings, including the noteworthy peach blush around the mid-section.
