Phone No: | (502) 489-2597 | Email: | miranda_ballou@yahoo.com | Mission: | To make beautiful handcrafted pottery for the table and the home, with an emphasis on animal themes and luscious glazes. | Profile: | I grew up in Corydon,IN & Louisville,KY, Life in the country became an inspiration for my art. I attended Oberlin College in Ohio, where I learned to make pottery while earning a degree in Biology From there I went east to Massachusetts and attended the Worcester center for Crafts, spent 3 years as the studio manager at Wesleyan Potters in Connecticut, and came back to Louisville and worked at Louisville Stoneware while setting up my studio. I am looking for another ceramics position somewhere.
| Information: | I´m located in Louisville KY at 3220 Frankfort Ave. In a rental spot there Ihave my pottery wheel , an electric and a Raku kiln. Wish I had a large gas or woodfire (oh well, in time). I mix my own glazes by hand and love to teach when I have the opportunity... one day when I have an extra wheel i will. But looks are free so call and ask when you can stop by to watch me make mud into functional art, THANKS, Miranda Ballou. | | Products/Services: | I specialize in hand-thrown functional stoneware for the table and home, specifically mugs, bowls, plates, and custom orders. I have produced lines for two restaurants, The Feve in Oberlin, OH, and The Gentle Lentil in Worcester, MA. Much of my work is available for rent at Ballou´s Rent-all , for sale at my studio or at Ginko Gallery or the Gallery Shop at Wesleyan Potters ( see links below) |
