NCAA Letter to Gwinn Henry, KU Athletic Director, December 12, 1938
Letter Dr. F. H. Ewerhardt, NCAA Vice-President, to Gwinn Henry, KU Athletic Director, regarding the 1938-1939 National Basketball Association Tournament. December 12, 1938.
This piece is a ceramic bust meant to resemble a character from a story I have developed over three years. The knight depicted is an aspect of time known as its guardian; his name is Neavergale. I loved creating this piece, which is my most ambitious ceramic work. The color and styling took over three weeks to design and implement, with countless mistakes made along the way. I used regular stoneware clay, beginning with a square hollow base, and worked my way up, ensuring that balance was maintained with the immense weight of the work. The glazework utilized a base of temoku, with white, red, yellow, black, blue, and purple underglaze to create the speckled star patterns. The interior is entirely hollow, with a structured frame within to maintain stability, with any cracks

My piece is a depiction of a potluck bringing together the residents of the neighborhood throwing it. I created a warm and cohesive color palette and a repeated flow in the lines and angles of the crowd, representing the unity and happiness the people were feeling being together. To me, the theme of embracing our differences means community involvement and contented togetherness in day-to-day events and places.
