Ceramic Art By Greg Lamont Is Available At Gallery 319, Ames, Iowa.

"It is no secret that one of the most basic joys afforded to us as humans is the act of eating and drinking - especially when the meal is enjoyed in the company of those close to us and in pleasant surroundings. Our senses of touch, taste, smell, vision and hearing are all fully engaged at such occasions, and the presentation of food in an attractive manner only serves to further enhance one's overall appreciation of the experience.

It is for this purpose that I most enjoy making vessels that relate to the preparation and consumption of food and drink, and that serve to beautify one's surroundings. I believe a substantial part of the beauty of handmade pottery lies in its use and the pottery I create is intended to take an active part in one's daily life. My continual quest, then, is to create pottery that not only performs its intended function well, but is also fresh and alive in its form, color, and surface.

As you view these pieces, I hope that you sense the excitement and pleasure that I have enjoyed making them."
