Denise Romecki’s works have an incredible attention to small details. Within in the tree on the rhino’s back is a whole world, with miniature rivers and forests.
Pamela Earnshaw Kelley’s primates have a unique human quality. The way they interact with the table’s surface creates a lifelike weight.
Romantic landscape paintings by Fredrick Edwin Church have helped me identify more with the powers of nature. These very large pieces make the viewer sense their own insignificance in the face of the unknown, and uncivilized.

About Ariel Bowman
I grew up in Dallas, Texas where I learned to love nature, animals, and art. I graduated with a BFA in ceramics from the Kansas City Art Institute in 2011. I am currently working towards my MFA in ceramics at the University of Florida. This blog serves as a way for my friends and family, as well as anyone interested in my work, to view not only the finished pieces, but some of the process as well. You can subscribe to this blog to keep up to date on what I am currently working on in the studio, research, new sources, and exhibitions.
