J. B. Blunk

== Background and Influences ==
J.B. (James Blain) Blunk was born in Lawrence, Kansas. He graduated from the University of California, Los Angeles, where he studied physics, later changing his major and studying under noted ceramist Laura Andreson. After serving in the United States Army in Korea, he met sculptor Isamu Noguchi in Japan and served apprenticeships with Japanese potter Kitaoji Rosanjin (1883–1959) and potter and Living National Treasure Toyo Kaneshige (1896–1967). Blunk was the first American to apprentice into the line of descent of that country’s great ceramic tradition.
After returning to the U.S., Blunk was eventually able to build his own home and studio near the Marin County town of Inverness, California, where he had a lifelong friendship and association with painter Gordon Onslow Ford.
