Bill Cary is a man of many talents. While working primarily in water media, he has branched out to include stoneware ceramics. A resident of the Oregon coast, Bill works from observation and photo references. The changing seascape, the capes and headlands, coastal forest, rivers, and abundant wildlife offer rich subject matter. When working in clay, he builds his pieces on the wheel or by hand. His functional stoneware pottery--including cups, mugs, plates, and bowls--are inspired by nature's palette.
