Using the four essential elements of Earth, Wind, Fire and Water, I have discovered how the Earth (clay) is representative of humankind, carried forth by the wind (potter’s hand), causing change and alteration. Water refreshes the senses and spirit, while the Fire refines and strengthens. I use a variety of deliberate hand techniques and also varied glazing mixtures of hue to create stories that leave a lasting impression on the viewer. My latest works involve combining differing textures and forms that test my skill and display the complexity of life. There is a direct correlation between a vessel of clay and the living, breathing vessel known as humankind. Just as a vessel is created with clay, can be used for honor or dishonor, so can the case be made for a person in the world today. https://www.jeffrevette.com/teaching-philosophy daily 0.75 2023-06-01 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1625847785277-YBIX2LS7VEWFR4RVHHFH/IMG_6681.jpeg Teaching Philosophy - Teaching Philosophy My personal and professional goals go hand-in-hand. I recently graduated with a Master of Fine Arts in Ceramics, which I believe will equip me in broadening the latitude of influence that I have with my students. I aspire to teach Sculpture, 3D Design, in addition to, Ceramics with William Carey University. I want to reach students at the core of their life and influence them to be lifelong learners. I desire to give my students the best instruction and example possible that will enable them to confidently achieve in life. I want to meet the student where they are and access, with them, where they want to go both academically and in life. I believe that students need an instructor who will give them room to explore their creativity while setting certain limits to ensure they stay on the right track. Student success will be generated by creating a safe, caring, and positive atmosphere, and by working with students’ one on one, in group settings, and by using lessons and activities that will motivate students to become actively involved in the learning process. It is also my responsibility to be a positive role model by working effectively with faculty and administrators. I represent a highly respected institution of higher learning in William Carey University. I will diligently work to protect and carry the spirit of “Carey” every where I go in life. https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio daily 0.75 2024-12-11 https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/totem-series-2023 monthly 0.5 2024-12-11 https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/sapgreenbronze monthly 0.5 2021-07-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610658053358-OEOJTL11T3WB9TNWWYO8/Sap+Green+Bronze+%28Jeff+Revette+2015%29+%28Clay%29.jpg Portfolio - Sap Green Bronze https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/southwestrain monthly 0.5 2021-07-09 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/68978181-cd21-4d95-b83e-2b26c071162b/IMG_2858+%281%29.JPG Portfolio - Southwest Rain https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/productioncups monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1625867635248-EIWTHJARLWRN8ZMMCM8S/Production%2BCups%2B2020.jpg Portfolio - Production Cups https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/oceanlimelight monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/eae52b72-62ac-4dc8-81da-5592eef506b0/Breakers+%28Jeff+Revette+2019%29+%28Clay+8+inches+high%29.jpg Portfolio - Ocean Limelight https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/oceanbreaker monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610657544757-YJXA2OVMD8ZPAJJXXC3U/Ocean+Breaker+2019.jpeg Portfolio - Ocean Breaker https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/cosmos monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656156447-M58WJMXMOKHIQVIH3WF5/Cosmos+%28Jeff+Revette+2015%29+%28Clay+16+inches+in+diameter%29.jpg Portfolio - Cosmos Cosmos https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/friendofman monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656589374-OH3UE9XJ95243VASZH5F/Friend+Of+Man+2+2020.JPG Portfolio - Friend of Man https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656589374-KELH3AY1V32HMQ3R6WET/Friend+Of+Man+2020.JPG Portfolio - Friend of Man https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/mayhem monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610657185603-KBAK0RZH8RJGWGAWU8OG/Mayhem+%28Jeff+Revette+2015%29+%28Clay%29.jpg Portfolio - Mayhem https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/manabouttown monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656995158-J8BH5711FMUFW0F6ZJ88/Man+About+Town+2+2020.JPG Portfolio - Man About Town https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656999014-TIBZE1VB3GN2WSXF0TFW/Man+About+Town+2020.JPG Portfolio - Man About Town https://www.jeffrevette.com/portfolio/kiwibronze monthly 0.5 2021-01-14 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5ff88137c29f45568107386f/1610656820387-LJ24V63I4LWMGQDZ9SIC/Kiwi+Bronze+%28Jeff+Revette+2015%29+%28Clay%29.jpg Portfolio - Kiwi Bronze
