Salt Glaze Pottery

Salt Glaze German artist?

I take a pottery class and I am suppose to make photos / answer questions on a artist who influenced me or that I like. I grew up with salt glazed elements around my house that my family is German. I can not I found two artists sought Bing, Google, Yahoo .... I can find pottery very well Does anyone know the names of a few German salt Glaze artists?

Here are some links that might interest you. The first is the import of German salt-glazed. Perhaps this is similar that you grew up with. The second is a pottery in the region of Pennsylvania Dutch - in the county of Lancaster. I visited the pottery and I saw the pots made and decorated in fashion icing salt. There are many Americans that the potters fire their pottery in a kiln with salt or have a line of work the salt glazing. Ben Owen III, a fifth generation Potter has his own interpretation of pottery glazed with salt and Caroline's life and works in Seagove (Jugtown) North. Finally, there are tons of pottery in Seagrove and Central North Carolina Pottery are many examples of salt-glazed items (see last two links). These should give you some sites for potters who have a style similar to what you like. Hope this helps.
