Lincoln artist showcases pottery at Junkstock fall show

Summarised from 2 outlets · Updated 14 Oct, 21:03 · Archive

Megan Adamek, a Lincoln artist who works under the name Megan Schroll Art, displayed pottery and illustrations at the fall edition of Junkstock near Waterloo. She studied pottery at the University of Nebraska at Kearney. 'I knew I wanted to be something with art, and I just fell in love with the medium,' Adamek said. 'I love the tangibility of the clay, and I also do a lot of illustrations as well, and so it's really cool to have the hands-on with the clay, and then the really intricate detailed drawings.'

Adamek works primarily in black and white. 'I like to delve into the opposites with life, with the poetic opposites, and you need both the dark and the light to appreciate the light in life,' she said. At Junkstock, she displayed illustrations including a 'spooky launch' for October and other nature-related designs. Her ghost mug, made with a white clay body, black underglaze and clear gloss glaze, was among her most popular items at the show.

Adamek has been in business for twelve years and primarily keeps her inventory for her own markets, though she has started taking mugs to coffee shops as her inventory allows. She has supplied mugs to Elk Creek Coffee in Elkhorn and, in the past, to a shop in Burwell. She has also sold mugs for several years at Crescent Moon Coffee in downtown Lincoln.
