Website

In 1991, John Cheer relocated to the northeast and in 1993 became a full-time clay artist, selling his work at fine art and craft shows throughout the country. In Pa., he studied glazing techniques under a master Italian ceramics artist Renzo Faggioli and later, art theory and design under artist Myron Barnstone.

I believe, as humans, we are all creators. Only our imagination will change our physical future. Artistic imagination is therefore not something to be taken lightly. For that reason, in my work, I strive for beauty and wonder.
All my work is made of stoneware and porcelain clay, wheel-thrown and hand formed. Glaze and crushed glass are added to most pieces prior to firing in propane gas kiln up to 2800° in 12Hr
