Leslie Thompson’s hand drawn designs are a challenge few potters would consider, yet she continues to grow and develop new themes for her unusual contemporary vessels. From quilt designs to African basket designs, Leslie incorporates a wide array of designs to turn her black and white pots into a thing of beauty.

Vessels Porcelain By Leslie Thompson
Leslie Thompson's carving is done completely freehand. The carving alone on a miniature piece can require three hours; a full-sized piece can require 10 hours, depending on design. The way the boxy patterns distort to conform to the curvaceous shapes of the pot is an unexpected element, but it pleases her. "I like that mix: hard-edged design with a curvy, voluptuous shape," she says.
