Hello…I’m Jonathan McWhorter and I’m pleased to share my clay creations with you.
I was diagnosed as a person with autism when I was 5. I started sculpting with modeling clay when I was 7 to express my passion for killer whales, dolphins, and all ocean creatures. When I finished my schooling, I decided that I wanted to do something to help dolphins and other marine life in the wild that had become injured or separated from their families. I decided to sculpt out of clay and sell my work to support organizations with these objectives. I created marine life figurines and now throw ceramic clay on the pottery wheel. I will continue to refine my art to support organizations like the Amos Rehabilitation Keep in Port Aransas. My art has been featured at several art centers along the Texas coast. I hope you enjoy my work….each piece is unique and was created with a love and passion for dolphins and all creatures of the ocean. |
