bowl measures 9" across and the lemons ae signed Mary Kirk Kelly

Mary Kirk Kelly (1918-2013) lived in Axis, Alabama. In many ways, she reflected a gentility of a different era; however she was also a woman of keen curiosity, determination, independence and integrity. Yet, it was her creative gift that defines much of her legacy. Mary Kirk Kelly's hands shaped magic out of clay, beginning with objects made from the clay of Gunnison Creek for the delight of her children to serious ceramic studies for discerning collectors over the world. The following describes her process:"Both her artistry and painstaking attention to detail are obvious". Each work is made by hand from earthenware or porcelain clay in liquid form (slip). Kelly's hands sculpt the greenware, then paints it before bisque firing. After firing, she brushes or sponges metallic oxide colorants to capture the realism so highly prized by collectors.
