Bubble Organic Bowl by CJ Henderson EFC

CJ Henderson

Born in Santa Barbara, California. From a young age he was inspired to create. Growing up he loved writing poetry, drawing, and creating cities both in the dirt for his matchbox cars or with Lego. This transitioned to his painting and sculpting with acrylics and wire/mixed Media sculptures. He studied art at Moorpark College, taking almost every art class they offered for 8 years. Primarily working in an abstract form, using bright vivid colors, hard color blocking and organic forms, he loves to push the envelope and think outside of the box on what colors and shapes make you feel when you look at them. He uses art as a method of therapy; Many of his pieces are an expression of his emotions, thoughts, trials and tribulations. For the past few years, CJ has returned to the art of ceramics at the Sedona Arts Center, studying and creating under the instruction of Dennis Ott; learning Raku and continuing to push the boundries of ceramics in an absract form. CJ Hopes to inspire viewers to view the world a little differently and feel the intended emotions with his works. He strives to show the world that it’s always better to create rather than destroy.
