Jerel Harwood:

Jerel’s earliest recollection with clay comes from his childhood in the Northern California town of Rough and Ready.  He remembers balling up the rust colored clay in his yard and the fascination with the patterns that it splattered and the way it stuck to the side of his parents’ home.  His mother promptly put an end to that line of expression.  He continued in clay during his high school years and periodically took ceramics classes while he studied Computer Science and worked as a Network Engineer.  Eventually the call of Ceramics was too great and Jerel left the computer science industry to pursue the Ceramic Arts and a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree.  With his Bachelor of Fine Art Degree at Utah Valley University now completed Jerel has applied and been accepted to Brigham Young University’s Masters of Fine Arts program in Ceramics. Jerel lives in Orem, UT with his wife Inez and two children.

Inez Harwood:

Inez is a wonderfully gifted artist, studying painting and drawing.  Inez is currently pursuing a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree at Utah Valley University.  Inez has had her hand in the creation of artwork since she was a small child.
