BLAIR MEERFELD I
COLORADO
CLICK HERE TO SEE ARTIST'S WORK

Having been born and raised in Colorado, I enjoy incorporating native clays and materials in my work. My interest in salt glazed stoneware stems from years of studying and collecting historic salt-fired pots from Europe and North America. Other influences are Asian ceramics, and architectural and natural land forms. The objective of my work is to unite traditional processes with contemporary color and form, resulting in a unique statement in clay.
Blair Meerfeld grew up in the Colorado communities of Akron, San Luis, and Alamosa, and received a BA in Art Education from Adams State College in Alamosa. He attended the University of Maine, Farmington, and Montgomery Community college in Rockville, Maryland. He worked for 10 years as a ceramic engineer for companies in Albuquerque, New Mexico, and in the Washington, DC area. Blair has operated his own studio and gallery, Meerfeld SALT GLAZED STONEWARE since 1988 and his work has been included in national and international exhibitions and collections.
