BIOGRAPHY

Candone Wharton's fine crafted, handbuilt vessels are uniquely carved with basket weave and block print designs. She is best known for her intricate work, fine luster glazes and her development of a technique that produces a metallic-like gold luster. Using Raku techniques, it is this striking combination of exciting surfaces that she intermixes that creates the mystery. When viewing her work you are transformed to a timeless place with its own language. Her surfaces speak in this language, transmitting the effect of the influence of African potters and her love for this media.
