"The Bowman Pottery" (formerly O.T.E.P. 1978 to 2004) was established March of 2005.
The actual pottery is located N.W. of Louisville, Ohio. It's a family affair with Clyde (Father),
Brandon (Son), and Cyndee (Wife/Mother) all "Playing in the clay." Clyde found an interest in clay
when he was 14 years old, and has been going on strong ever since. That's 46 years! Of course Brandon
has been doing art ever since he could hold a crayon. So it makes sense that he and his "Pop"
should be working together to bring hand-made clay objects to the public.
Clyde is a retired high school art teacher. Brandon is certified in Art Education K-12 with a
B. S. in Art Education, and is presently teaching art at Plain Local Schools. Brandon also has a
B. F. A. degree in Art, specializing in painting. You've gotta see his talent!
Especially his portrait work. Looking to have a oil painting done of a
loved one? Contact him.
Dear Cyndee has two hobbies; Gardening
and Art. She's working in the "clay" one way or the other.
