Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny, ceramicist and potter in Tucson, Arizona.
I work in the medium of stoneware clay and make hand-built pottery, sculpture, hamsas, ornaments, masks, and a variety of other forms.
Self-taught artist on the autism spectrum. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, horror comedy, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – and all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme. I’m just frantically birthing as many clay monstrosities out into the world as I can until I’m no longer able to do so.
This blog has served as a record of my ceramic output since 2006.

Dwarf Spirits
These are the three dwarf spirits for this week's episode of D&D Encounters. I intended to create Tolkien dwarves, but I think they came out more like Disney dwarves. I don't think I'm going to actually use them. They're a little taller than the orc spirits and they're also top heavy, so when the proprioception-challenged Warforged bard collides with the table for nth time, they'll fall on their big noses, a completely unacceptable afterlife situation for dwarves.
