Meet the BOMH Board: Patty Muenks

Name: Patty Muenks

Role on the Board: Welcome Committee

Joined: 2017

Why: Strong desire to support and promote the arts in Missouri; to network and connect with other artists; to learn more and become a better artist in my field.

Other organizations: Greater St. Louis Art Association, Foundry Art Centre

Hobbies: hiking, crocheting, collage, reading, journaling, cooking, playing with my cats, and gardening

Medium: clay

Description of work: I work in hand building with clay, using pinch techniques and slab work, to create sculptural, organic forms as well as ceramic stones and boxes. I use a wide glaze palette of color tones and combinations with unique patterning and textures.  My stoneware clay is predominately fired in electric kilns, but I recently began an exploration in raku firing.
