Kate MacDowell uses her artwork to comment on the beauty of our world and how we as humans appreciate and desire this beauty.  Contrasting to this is our desire for a convenient and easy lifestyle which impacts the beauty of the world around us.  MacDowell crafts these beautifully and intricately detailed works in porcelain.

Today’s artwork is a ceramic exploration in texture and pattern by artist Margaret Boozer.  Margaret Boozer calls many of her works, dirt paintings.
