Biography from Fine Arts Collection, Luther College:
| Lynn Bowers graduated from Reed College and the Portland Art Museum
School in 1965. She studied with Marguerite Wildenhain at the Pond Farm
summer workshops between 1962 and 1964 and again for a few years in the
1970s and 1980s.
Bowers established the Fox Hollow Pottery in Eugene, Oregon, in 1971.
She has had a 15 year career in costume design for the ballet and opera
and also does residential mural painting. Bowers makes ceramic
sculptures and creates pottery during “warm weather.”
The stoneware vase by Bowers in the Pond Farm Collection
was created in 2000. It has a greenish-gold body with an incised blue
and white abstracted stem and leaf design. The interior is glazed
cobalt blue.
