Wolfsong Ceramics Jillian Wolf

Welcome to Wolfsong Ceramics, artisan tableware and other items for enriching your home environment with the essence of nature.

Each piece, or song, begins with a walk in the woods, a moving meditation during which I center in my heart and connect with Spirit. There under the towering trees, I listen to the music as played by leaves, lichen, seed pods and so on…nature, a knowing of Spirit through all six senses. While some of these elements may be incorporated into the work I do that day, I might also be inspired by crystal formations in caves, the turn of a wooded creek bed, or the texture and repetitive patterns of a desert rock face. My favorite pieces are those that seem to create themselves. They have an energy all their own and draw me into a process I have little control over. Like walking in the woods, I choose a path that appeals to me at the time and follow it through to its natural conclusion…more as an appreciative spectator than composer. Nature as a whole is the song of life. It feels real and precious and grounding. Without it I couldn’t live…none of us could.

With regard to design, I tend toward an Asian aesthetic. Many of my pieces double as sculptural forms suitable for display in the homes of patrons with a passion for nature…and the magic that creates and sustains it. When you choose a piece of artwork because it “sings” to you, the song is also about you. The attributes of a piece that attracts you to it, are the attributes of your own creativity. And so we work together in the process of bringing a shared expression of natural beauty to the world. Open your heart, feel the wet clay in your hands, and sing!
