Schatz
Studio & Gallery is located on the Schatz property where Greg, wife,
Katie, and family reside. On these three acres of natural beauty in Brown County, Greg feels a
strong connection to the natural world and a sense of his place in it.
This connection is evident in the spirit Greg’s work, as he uses
natural materials and resources to create works that share qualities with
nature. Some of those qualities include variation, subtlety,
asymmetry, and gesture.
From
his Studio, Greg creates functional pottery from stoneware and porcelain, which
he then either fires for 24-35 hours in a wood-burning kiln or fires to cone 10
reduction in a gas kiln. The finished pieces can be seen in the gallery, located in
the same building as the studio. A
short leisurely stroll reveals the adjacent outdoor woodland gallery.
Garden related pottery, such as planters, bird feeders, birdbaths, and
sculptures are found among the various plants and trees.
