Maria Musarra Sefranek
Maria started her artistry at an early age
of 9, dabbling in water
colors, oils and acrylic medias on paper and canvas. Maria decided
to make Phoenix, Arizona her home in 1973. After lending her artistic expertise and ideas
to a number of ceramics and pottery manufacturers, Maria made the decision to open her own decorative pottery, ceramic
and art studio in 1980.
Among her list
of accomplishments, she has been honored with over 200 awards including many
1st place, high 1st place, best of class. best of group and best of show
awards at ceramic events in which she has entered competition. Maria has also won the coveted "PEGGY", which is the highest
award presented in the professional category. In addition, she
was honored with "The award of excellence" in the Master's division,
presented
by the Duncan Certified Teachers of Arizona.
Maria continues to use her artistic and creative
imagination, constantly coming up with new designs and
unique ideas.
Individuals from all over the United States, Canada, and as far
away as Australia, England, Germany. the Netherlands and Italy
have enjoyed and purchased her unique
creations. Taking great pride in her work, Maria puts
in much time, effort, thought and detail into each creation, from start to
finish, making sure it has just the right eye appeal, so others can
also enjoy and appreciate her ability and the quality of her work.
Over the years, it has been a pleasure to peruse through her
creations, and I hope you enjoy browsing Maria's collection
as much as I have.
Warmly,
J. A. Squire
