Steven Howell

Steve Howell is a full time, non-supported studio potter and has been since 1983. Now he works primarily creating woven copper and clay sculptures as well as functional red earthenware dinner ware. Steve continues to stretch his talent creating new forms with more elaborate and intricate designs. His pieces are manipulated and embellished to create the sculptural forms that are his trademark.
Howell's designs are influenced by current trends as well as popular painters of the turn-of-the-century especially Mattise and use of colors. Howell is also strongly impressed by early Japanese pottery, particularly the ``Amari'' style and his work has been exhibited in Japan.
