“Creating Judaica is like bringing the most honored guest to a celebration.”
Creating Judaica became an expression of Liz Lauter's Jewish roots growing up in multi-cultural San Francisco surrounded by Mexican folk art and Italian culture. She always worked with clay, always painted, and always gardened, so studying
Botany and Painting in college deepened her interests. After her family spent 4 years living in Israel, the Islamic arts and design captivated her. The nature in Israel and its connection to Judaism became another avenue of design for her. It all is woven together in her ceramic “fabric” of Judaica art. Each hand made ceramic piece is unique, using traditional Italian majolica ceramic techniques and hand painted colors over a white glaze. She celebrate all of the irregularities of hand-made-ness as evidence of the presence of the artist.
