386: Stephen Earp on interpreting 17th-century terracotta traditions

Today on the Tales of a Red Clay Rambler Podcast I have an interview with Stephen Earp. From his studio in NW Massachusetts Earp makes earthenware pots in the redware and Delft traditions. In our interview we talk about his interest in colonial American pottery styles, working at Old Sturbridge Village as a young potter, and how he interprets the aesthetics of 17th-century wares. To see examples of his work visit www.stephenearp.com.
