About: Artist Vince Sansone

Vince Sansone is a master potter. His experience with stoneware shows in every piece. At any given time he is a teacher, a student, and a participator in several arts organizations. Through the ceramic process, Sansone transforms raw materials to create objects of beauty or whimsey for the home as well as the community. He also enjoys drawing and cartooning.

The emphasis for this body of work is on sculpture and illumination for the garden and patio. Sculpture, lanterns and candlesticks were made to compliment that time of evening when the sun has given way to the cooler hours and relaxing on the deck or patio with a cool drink is the most important item of business you are thinking of. Nothing esoteric about that! It is time to "chill" and art that enhances that ambiance is what I have striven for with these pieces.
