160: Carol Gouthro on her fascination with the microscopic world

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler I talk with Carol Gouthro. Having worked in clay for almost forty years, Gouthro makes ceramic art that is inspired by the lush environment of the American Northwest. Seeds, blooms and other biomorphic elements create the feeling that her pieces might come alive and scurry across the table. In our interview we talk about falling in love with color, being fascinated with the microscopic world, and incorporating the influence of art history in her current body of sculpture.

This episode of the podcast is sponsored by THINK BIG, a six-week e-course that covers practical skills for growing your small business. Molly Hatch and I had such a positive response from our last class that we are now offering Think BIG and Think BIG 2 at the same time! If you missed out on the opportunity to take one of these in the past you can now sign up for either session, or take both simultaneously. The next session starts January 5th so sign up today.
