David Pinto...
Jamaican born and grown. His own expressive style began to emerge
at the Rhode Island School of Design. Later, in New York City he was
privileged to work with a number of outstanding Ceramic Artists and refine his
technical and aesthetic skills. Before returning home to Jamaica, he spent several
months in Japan studying and making his own work while exploring
Kiln Design and Firing Techniques.
