Monty Smith
Monty Smith: in the sixties I didn’t ask what I was going to do because I was steadily drawing and potting. Today I am still at it and in the next hundred years will really nail it down. In the meantime, I have vases in two museums, have done two “One Percent for Art” Projects and have had enough success doing sculpture, pots, and slip cast pieces to survive.
