Mary Tuthill Lindheim

Mary Lindheim is primarily known for sculptural work using stoneware and various construction techniques resulting in pieces that are wheel-thrown, slab-built, and carved. Pieces were finished with glazes she mixed herself including a heavily textured crawl glaze she developed in the 1950s.

Lindheim initially studied with Ralph Stackpole, Alexander Archipenko, and later with Antonio Prieto.

Lindheim was a tireless advocate for the arts in Northern California, never hesitating to work for a cause she considered important to the field and the area.
