Tom & Nancy GiustiTom and Nancy Giusti have been doing Raku Pottery since 1984. As a team, with Nancy's ability to draw and Tom's technical ability to create new shapes for Nancy's wildlife creations, they have created some bright, stunning and refined images to be used on the usually rough and primitive Raku Pottery. They find continuity in the control of the forms with Nancy's drawings and the spontaneity of the glazes reaction in the Raku fire. The copper base glaze is an ever changing contrast surface and it will take on the environment it is exposed to.
Nancy's education includes a B.A. in Art and a Secondary teaching certificate for Art/Science/History from the University of Nevada, and a B.S. in General Biological Sciences from Oregon State University. Nancy spent several years teaching for the Peace Corps in Ghana, where she acquired a greater influence and appreciation for the creation of primitive pottery which has led her into this art form. Tom spent several years at a junior college taking many art classes in several different mediums. He also learned a second Japanese art form of a different medium at Humboldt State University, that of Gyotaku (fish rubbings). While a member of the Nature Printing Society, he had an opportunity to study the art form from a master Gyotaku artist of Japan, Mr. Takahashi. Tom's background includes many years as a machinist and welder, plus repairing and building many different types of equipment. With this technical background he has been able to design and build much of the equipment used in the family business. (Manufacturer's Description) Fern Wall Hanging
