John Rubesha

I was attracted to art history as a teenager and, as an adult, painted a very occasional oil.  I was in my 50s when my wife, Kathy, asked me to join her in a 5-evening pottery class and I was hooked! The next day we signed up at Palomar College and spent the next 10 years honing our skills (and using their equipment ‘til we bought our own).   Thirty-three years and thousands of pots later I am still enchanted with the process, the magic, of this ancient art, but I can’t make the big ones any more.
