Crimson Laurel Gallery

Originally from Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, David originally studied under Isobel Karl at the High Mowing School in New Hampshire.  After a two-year apprenticeship in Tennessee with Lewis Snyder, he spent many years as a journeyman potter working in different parts of the country, including Wisconsin and the Jugtown Pottery in Seagrove North Carolina.  He has lived and worked for more than 15 years in Seagrove - a community with a long and evolving pottery heritage. Seagrove is a small, rural community located in the state’s clay-rich central piedmont. It is the center of a community of over 100 potters, many of whom can claim a genealogy of several generations of potters.
