"Process and Patience in All Matters"
Drawn to the social aspect of the community art studio at the Jansen Art Center in Lynden, Washington, Ruth Hesse pivoted from a two-decade exploration of monotype printmaking to pursue her interest in ceramics. Primarily self-taught, she has developed complicated and detailed processes to accomplish her surface designs. She works spontaneously and intuitively, deploying her printmaker’s mindset as she manipulates positive and negative space, layers of color, pattern, and texture.Ruth currently works out of Red Heat Ceramics Studio in Tulsa, Oklahoma, where she is able to work in mid- and high-fire environments.
