Current Shows

You can call and make an appointment to view my art and pottery in my studio in Ashland. Below is a store that has my pottery on an on-going basis.


Five Crows Store in Natick, MA

Five Crows Store in Natick, MA Five Crows


An arts and crafts store selling my framed and unframed Breath prints, pottery (23 pieces right now!) and now beaded jewelry! The pottery shown above, is called "Crow and His Friends." One-of-a-kind pieces in this series are being sold at Five Crows along with a lot of other pottery. (See more of this series on this page of my site.)

Featured Artist and Demonstration May 2011:
During a 2 week featured show of my 70 pieces of pottery (with 20% discounts!) I was at Five Crows two times, demonstrating carving and doing other surface work that I do with clay (after I throw pots on my wheel in my studio). I also had a collaborative bowl (leather hard clay) available for visitors to make marks into. This time of demonstrating, discussing and helping was a wonderful experience.

Even if you aren't shopping for my art, it is a great store, worth checking out!

Debra Griffin art at Annual Jamaica Plain Open Studios

Jamaica Plain Open Studios

late September 2009-11

I was at Pondside Dental Assos. (793 Centre St. JP) showing mostly my pottery but also beaded jewelry, photographic note cards, framed mixed-media art, and wearable art! I plan to be back there next year again!

 

Many visitors to my display tables in 2011 voted in De Pot Ballot sharing what were their favorites pieces of pottery or art. This was very helpful for my confidence and the votes might affect what I make in the future.

 






Debra Griffin art at Annual Jamaica Plain Open Studios

The Pottery Lottery (held in 2010) was a big hit. Almost 200 people participated. There was an excited crowd near my table during the drawing time: 4 pm Sunday. A youngster volunteer randomly picked the winner: Isaiah, a 4 year old boy. Isaiah choose a nice big bowl he can grow into. He returned with his mom in 2011. She shared how much he uses it, loves it, and how it is holding up even with regular use by a young child. Yay!

Here is a link to the JPOS website so you can see the variety of art available.
