“In high school, I was inspired by an art instructor who introduced me to clay. That instructor truly changed the direction of my life. I create porcelain objects, often incorporating highly embellished surfaces. I am inspired by nature, textiles, graphic design and architecture. I often work on an intimate scale meant to entice the viewer both physically and visually. My genuine enjoyment of the medium is evident by the playful nature of my work but I also strive to convey refinement and meticulous craftsmanship in each piece." - Barbara Chadwick, Belmont NC
