About Fay Jones Day

 

I am Fay Jones Day, the artist that makes all the tiles that you see on this website. I also make and maintain the website. I answer your emails, and pack up the tiles and samples to ship out.

I am originally from Toledo, Ohio. I began life in 1951, as Fayann Jones. I grew up in a stone house that my father built with hand tools.

I now live and work in Corvallis, Oregon. I share my life with my husband, artist and illustrator Jonathan Day, and our cat Jennie. I am also a mother, grandmother, and childcare provider. I enjoy cooking, gardening and reading.

I began my work in clay as a figurative sculptor in1989. I found that I really enjoyed surface decoration, and changed to making tile in 2000. Soon after, I was introduced to the Arts and Crafts movement, via American Bungalow Magazine. I love knowing that my tiles are being permanetly installed in people's homes. I love what I do!

One of my tiles is included in Lark Books' 500 Tiles.

Member of: Local Clay, America Creates, and the Willamette Ceramics Guild.

 

News from the artist

Wow! It's been a challenging summer for me. We had a sink hole in the back yard-don't ask! Both of my kilns broke at the same time. After that, I went though a horrible several weeks where I thought that I would never get my wonderful green glaze to come out right again! Finally we fixed the problem and I got my favorite glaze back again!

I have just added bullnose tiles to my field tile page. I am offering bullnose tiles for the smooth tiles but not alas the textured ones.

I have now made a brochure for my tiles. If you would like a brochure, please email me with you address and I will send one to you.

My ad is out in the Fall American Bugalow Magazine now. Also I will to be part of American Bungalow's New and Noteworthy section in the winter issue.
