Welcome to the Holdread Studio...
The Holdread Studio has produced clay artworks in Tucson since 1978. Joy Holdread focuses on custom designed & handmade sculptural tile of stoneware clay with strong landscape and geological themes. The geological mirror series and geode-like lizard rock boxes are likewise inspired.

Desert Born Vessels use landscape inspired forms and colors, with overlaid or incised designs and perforations.
|
Footed platters or bowls hold fossil impressions such as trilobites,
while lizards and other creatures adorn the tripod feet, or pedestals. |
 |
 |
Creamer, slotted sugar, and mug.
Wheel-thrown, handled mugs with carved, swirled skies and textured, lizard-studded landscapes, glazed in multiple colors. |
Earth Series Mirrors resemble pools in rock. Durable, high fire stoneware frames, backed with wood and ready to hang.
|
 |
On a smaller scale, Holdread also produces a line of stoneware jewelry: earrings, pins, necklaces, and ornaments. And if a piece you appreciate has already been purchased, I may have something else that will interest you. |
Holdread also offers WORKSHOPS for the general public and artists:
"That's Art Biz" -- the business aspect of survival as a visual artist
"Low Tech Clay Recycling Demo" -- proper recycling of clay and glazes
"Tools From Trash" -- making tools for pottery and sculpture.
