By our own Ford Employee, John Murphy, established artist and Professor at Schoolcraft College, Livonia, MI. John tells his students, "First I work out the ideas or inspirations in my mind and in my heart...then I merely execute". Our own John Murphy has cast thin wall forms to accentuate the translucent qualities of porcelain in his latest creation, the Slip Cast Porcelain Vessel. John's work references inspirations, current events, personal information or just entertains dreams.
