Karon Doherty, née Richardson (1941–1999) was a ceramic sculptor. She was influenced by the colors and themes of folk art, but was academically trained. Her work incorporated imagery relating to people and animals from her personal life, including her husband, Louis, and her pet dogs, cats and birds. She worked with a wide variety of forms, from teapots to very large shrines, and used bright, earthenware colors and terra cotta clay bodies. The use of color was critical to her artistic expression.
