Ceramic artist Natalya Sots
Schaumburg, Illinois based artist Natalya Sots is a real fairy, whose force is to revive inanimate objects, such as a conventional cookware. And for this, it is not necessary to possess magical powers or enter the cartoon “Beauty and the Beast,” where the cups, saucers and teapots were able to run, sing, talk and dance.

Enough to be creatively minded artist in ceramics, whose skillful hands create works of art in which it is difficult to find the same cups, teapots, saucers … Natalya Sots ceramics are enjoyable to look at and fun. All of her work is in earthenware clay, both terracotta and white talc earthenware. The clay gets bisque fired to around 1900 F (cone 05-06), then glaze is applied and the pieces are fired again.

Hand made teapot

In the hands of Natalya Sots cups and teapots, milk and oil can are transformed, becoming funny little men, dwarfs wearing funny shoes, birds with long curved beak, or any other nice creatures. Noteworthy, each piece is fully functional, painted with food safe glaze and underglaze.
