Liz Zlot Summerfield

I attended the University of Minnesota in Minneapolis to complete my Masters of Fine Arts in 2004. Since graduation, I have lived and worked in Bakersville, North Carolina with my husband and glass artist, Scott Summerfield. We share a large outbuilding that houses each of our studios and a showroom for our work. I have been an instructor and visiting artist at numerous clay facilities, colleges, and universities. I exhibit and sell my work nationally through exhibitions, fine craft shows, our home gallery, and my online shop. I have been featured and on the cover of Ceramics Monthly and Clay Times magazine. I have also authored and been included in a variety of ceramic publications. In 2014, Ceramics Arts Daily released an instructional DVD featuring my construction and surface techniques. In 2020, Liz and Scott founded Double Island Studio, a communal space devoted to art making, teaching, and learning
