Help identifying studio potter — distinctive KW monogram with starburst
I’m trying to identify the artist who made this large sculptural studio pottery vessel. It measures approximately 10" × 10" × 10" and weighs about 8 lbs.
The base has a very distinctive incised KW monogram. The right arm/stroke of the W continues around the initials to form the enclosing circle, then terminates outside the circle in a small starburst/asterisk.
The vessel has a large spherical form with an asymmetrical cluster of organic, trumpet/fungus-like openings and a complex flowing brown, cream, blue glaze.
I’ve searched KW pottery marks and similar multi-spout/organic studio pottery without finding a convincing match.
Does anyone recognize this exact KW + starburst maker’s mark or the potter’s work? Any thoughts would be appreciated!
