Janet Leazenby<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

I have been intrigued with organic qualities in clay from a young age.\u00a0 Trying to inject a living and dancing quality into the clay has been a goal of mine for a very long time.\u00a0 I use \u201cSlung Slabs\u201d on collar areas of vessels, ears, or beaks on my animals.\u00a0 Using \u201cSlung Slabs\u201d stretches and infuses pieces with a permanent sense of movement.<\/p>\n

Stretching clay has been a developed process instead of using a slab roller.\u00a0 Combining nature forms with stretching clay has also retained the life in the clay.\u00a0 An organic movement frozen in time has been my inspiration for years.<\/p>\n

I was a resident of South Bend, Indiana, and have a Bachelor\u2019s of Art degree from Indiana University.\u00a0 I retired from being an art teacher in the South Bend Community School Corporation after 29 years.\u00a0 I was also a clay instructor for the South Bend Museum of Art for 35 years.\u00a0 Since 2013, I have lived in Hendersonville, NC, as a full-time, award-winning artist.<\/p>\n
