Paul
Jeselskis- Received his B.F.A. in Ceramics from Bradley University,
Peoria, Illinois and M.F.A. in Ceramics from Edinboro University,
Edinboro, Pennsylvania. Jeselskis presently lives in Michigan
City, Indiana where he manages a pottery business. Paul has taught
ceramics over 20 years most recently as Adjunct Ceramics Instructor
at Indiana University Northwest, Gary, Indiana and has offered
workshops in kiln building, glaze chemistry, throwing techniques
and sculptural techniques. He draws upon his extensive knowledge
of ceramic history and glaze chemistry for the creation of his
classic artistic pottery forms.
Over
the past 15 years, Jeselskis has developed a line of functional
and decorative porcelain pottery. His work has won numerous awards
and is widely recognized across the United States.
Paul
first forms his work on a potter's wheel and then carves and manipulates
the surfaces. He uses a high fire porcelain clay body that he
has developed, along with a variety of bright color glazes that
are easy on the eye and durable. Paul fires his work in one of
several gas and electric kilns that he has built.
