About M. Francis Larson
I am an honors student studying fine arts with a concentration in ceramics. My passion for art has led me to Minnesota State University Mankato where I am learning the intricate methods of building and glazing unique clay bodies.
​
I am currently in my senior year and will be graduating in May of 2025 with a BFA
My hobbies include but are not limited to the following. One of the best decisions in my life was to take up SCUBA which allowed me to travel worldwide. Recently I decided to complete a 2-year program in culinary arts.
​
After completing my BFA I would like to attend a graduate program for ceramics. My thoughts are open to where I end up in life, from teaching to selling art out of the back of a truck.
