Jeri Burdick, Eutawville, SC

Jeri Burdick has been a full time studio artist since 1982. In addition to print making (monotypes) and paintings, she works primarily in clay making bowls, cups, and other things that you can use daily.

Burdick, who has exhibited widely both within the southeast and elsewhere in the US, has won numerous awards for her creative and energetic approach to ceramic form and surface. She was a recipient of a SC Crafts Association fellowship, and the S.C. State Museum has purchased her work for their permanent collection. She has exhibited in many fine galleries, including Nina Liu and Friends in Charleston, SC, Blue Spiral in Asheville, NC, Carol Saunders in Columbia, SC, and the Hampton III Gallery in Greenville, SC. She is now represented by if ART Gallery in Columbia.

Burdick has a Masters Degree in early childhood education from Furman University. Because of her interest in art and in education, she extensively works in school with students and teachers.
