Fred Stodder was born in 1957 in Manhattan Beach, California and began studying ceramics at the age of 16. He went on to receive a Bachelor of Fine Arts Degree from the University of California, Irvine.

Fred’s ceramic art is regularly exhibited in galleries and museums throughout the country. He has received numerous awards and his work appears in many important collections. Fred’s work has also been featured in Ceramics Monthly as well as other national arts publications.

Although ceramics is a very ancient art form, Fred’s work is very unlike traditional ceramics. He uses extremely hard edges, bright, bold colors and razor sharp glaze delineation. Fred finds his inspiration in architecture, minimalist painting and jazz music.
