Welcome Rappahannock County artist Mary Ann Sevick Welcome Rappahannock County artist Mary Ann Sevick to the Fall Art Tour! Sevick is a functional potter primarily focusing on wheel-thrown, stoneware vessels. She glaze-fires her pottery in an electric kiln when vibrant colors are desired, and uses a gas kiln for softer, earthier finishes. Mary Ann particularly enjoys the Zen nature of throwing pots and, in the words of Bernard Leach, the manner in which pottery “engages the head, the heart, and the hands”.

Mary Ann's studio was built in 2024- 2025, and is surrounded by perennial gardens and contains a single electric wheel, slab roller, and kiln. New to the Fall Art Tour in 2026, Mary Ann extends a heartfelt welcome to her studio.

See more of her work on our website at www.fallarttour.org! And mark your calendars for this year's Fall Art Tour - our 21st! - on November 7-8, 2026.
