BIOGRAPHY
Richard Lincoln's thrown stoneware pieces are glazed with minimal patterns and are clear examples of the mid-century aesthetic favoring simple forms and glaze patterns.
Lincoln studied with Rhoda Lopez and J. T. Abernathy at the Potter’s Guild in Ann Arbor, Michigan. He went on to have a long career as an educator and functional potter.
