Skylar Fleming - Art maker
Skylar Fleming is an artist living in Seattle Washington. He is a self taught porcelain sculpture artist, creating sculptures by way of slip casting and hand building techniques. He started his adventures into the ceramic realm in 2015 after a visit to an estate sale where he found a few plaster molds used for slip casting. Influenced by everyday happenings, nature, music, and random thoughts Skylar is inspired to create works of art that might give a little insight into what is really going on inside his head and provoke the viewers thoughts of what and why. Learning more everyday, pushing the limits of the clay body and sometimes his sanity of what it can and can’t do, he loves every aspect of the medium and it’s endless possibilities.
I've always thought a lot about craft. So while I'm creating anything I find myself honing my craft to make sure it's as flawless as I can get it, some might call it OCD but I like to think it's producing the best work I can make. I want anyone who gets to see a piece in person to think the same thing. The last thing I want someone to think or say is, "That's nice but he could've done this or cleaned that up and so on." so that's always on my mind while creating whatever it is I'm working on.
If you've made it this far reading, thanks for being interested/invested in what I have to say and create. Anyway, if you have any questions don't hesitate to send me an email or give a shout on instagram! Thanks to all you lovely people, and your support! You help me to keep creating and I really appreciate it,

Thanks again for visiting!
Cheers,
Skylar
