Diane Gale’s art evokes feeling and experience. Her pieces are a three dimensional canvas, each telling its story. The firing method and kiln, be it wood, gas, electric or raku, are intrinsic to each piece’s story. Each kiln requires a temperature-specific clay body, while the shape, texture and surface techniques capture that firing method’s unique characteristics.

Diane’s work has been exhibited internationally, and her work is featured in galleries and exhibitions across the U.S.

Her educational background is both traditional - from colleges imparting foundational techniques, as well as from specialty workshops with potters such as Paul Soldner, Patty Warashina, Tom Coleman and Ruthanne Tudball. Diane’s greatest influence emerged during her juried residency in Tokoname, Japan, where she lived while studying Japanese culture, throwing techniques and wood firing. Her preference is for simple shapes with an organic surface; asymmetrical, irregular and altered pieces reflect the reality of our imperfections.

Diane’s passion for clay spans over 30 years and continues to evolve - embracing its versatility and her life experiences. Her pieces are her stories and she is honored to share them with art collectors with the hope they find a part of their story in them too.
