2013 Artisans Road Trip Artist Mel Myers

Pottery/Ceramic Art  ©Mel Myers

Mel Myers' hand made pottery shows his years of experience, care and attention to detail. His winter's work has produced new glazes in soft spring colors and rich earth tones. His vases, bowls, trays, and vessels are usable and beautiful.

Myers is known throughout the state for his intricately carved pottery. Return customers look for him at summer art shows in Des Moines, Ames, and Iowa City; however, he also sells from his studio located at 717 11th Ave East in Spencer.

His one-of-a-kind pottery make for nice gifts...or may be admired and used in ones home or work place.

Buy pottery made by your home town potter/ceramic artist ...the man who exhibits under the company name of "Clay County Clay."
