Stonehenge Pottery - Ron Aubuchon

Stonehenge Pottery Company

Ron Aubuchon - Clay Artist
I first experienced clay in 1969 while living in Hawaii. Under the tutelage of Dave Huebner, I fell in love with this wonderful media. From the moment the first lump of clay swirled through my hands I knew I wanted to become a potter. During my Hawaii sojourn I studied with Dave Huebner, Jack White, Lis Burrows and others to develop a style and feel for the clay that is still much represented in my work today. Upon completion of a degree in art from Southeast Missouri State University in 1976, I established The Stonehenge Pottery Company located in Farmington, MO., producing functional, utilitarian stoneware pottery. My work was exhibited and sold at various arts & crafts shows, specialty gift shops as well as in galleries throughout the Midwest, Hawaii and Florida.

In 1991, I closed the doors of The Stonehenge Pottery Company and traded the silica chips for silicon chips opening a computer store. Though the establishing and growing a new business was challenging, invigorating and rewarding, the 'hummmmm' of the wheel called me back. In 1997 I returned to pottery on a part time basis focusing more on the individual piece and the qualities of clay. During this time I began experimenting with Raku and Smoke ware and the unique qualities they lend to producing a truly, 'one-of-a-kind' original piece.

I retired from the computer business in August 2004, and am now devoting my energies to my first love…pottery! My present work consists of contemporary pieces of art using Raku and Smoke ware techniques. My traditional stoneware pieces however are produced as functional and utilitarian as I strongly feel that "the beauty of the piece lies in its use!" I'm also teaching this wonderful art form to others through classes and work shops in my studio.

My work is currently sold in several Missouri galleries and can be seen and viewed on my web site at www.stonehengepottery.com.
