Megan and Emily Earthenware shaped tiles, sgraffito with underglazes, luster glazes, and crackle glaze. Ceramic thrown frame, approximately 37 inches wide, 60 pounds, 1993 For me, the specificity of subject matter, the tactile qualIties of the materials, the intensity of the colors, and the depth of glazing techniques 111 ceramics are enticing.

Border excerpr from The Wife ofBath

John R. Hiester While the lure of technology is evident in my images, I have been working harder to make that dimension translucent, if not transparent. An is, after all, about ideas and not about media! The Canterbury Ta!esillustrations are impressions of human qualities as seen by a traveller, much as Chaucer might have observed pilgrims on their way. Those seen by this traveller are sometimes friends and other times simply faces cast into roles predefined by the literature. I've tried to be "creatively anachronistic" in the process ofseeing my fellow travellers. in both an historic and con足 temporary perspectlve. The "look into" pieces are manifestations of a desire to see differently, exploring another per足 spective.
