Aberrant Ceramics is the artwork of Aaron Nosheny,
ceramic artist 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.

I’m a self-taught autistic artist working in my medium for over twenty years. I like monsters, insects, weird animals, body horror, folk horror, horror comedy, horror in general, Halloween decorations, fast food mascots, kitsch – all of these creep into my work, but there’s really no overarching theme.

I am in love with my medium. I love the process of frantically birthing clay monstrosities, subjecting them to an epic trial by fire, and sending them out into the world.

Edna and the Mudmen

All the recent flirtation with evil clown beds makes me want to construct more Simpsons objects. This is a hallucinatory image of Edna Krabapple from "El viaje misterioso de nuestro Jomer." I'm hoping to follow it up with other hallucinatory images from the same episode.




I'm starting the new season of D&D Encounters, Beyond the Crystal Cave, next week. I decided not to bother with the Xivorts/Xvarts (sinister, gnome-like beings with blue skin and big orange eyes) since they probably wouldn't get done in time. Instead, I'm looking at the mudmen.

I started out with three lumpy blobs...




... and moved on to three lumpy blobs with eerie doll-mold faces and arms.
