Francis Bliven

Oakland

I try to make creative expressive pots. I want people to respond to my work in an emotional way. I want them to be able to get to know my work as they use it over a long period of time.  My work is always changing and I am always learning. I have no static style, because there isn't one that can hold the range of expression that comes through me. I love to teach. I love the vulnerability and intimacy that comes from sharing a moment of learning with someone. I want to support the delicate process of growth and transformation.
