Illustrated
is a simple wood fired crackle white glazed bowl with added feet by Randy
Johnston made during the mid-1990s. Fully functional in design and execution,
Johnston's wood fired pots explore what possibilities arise from falling ash accentuating
mark, ridges, lips and shallows and to that end, the interior of this bowl and
the lip clearly show the efforts of the firing and potter. Having studied with
both Warren MacKenzie and Shimaoka Tatsuzo, this bowl shows the influence of
the former while wood firing glazed ware reflects the later, either way it is a
reflection of both masters while maintaining its individual voice of a
conscious and thoughtful potter.
