Foelber Pottery Gallery & Studio
Earnest Snell
Earnest Snell is an artist who has been living on the streets of Houston for about 20 years. Concerned groups of friends and artists are working to help this talented man find his place in our society again.
We first met Earnest at St. James' Episcopal Church during the Jubilee Service and Supper for the homeless. We were impressed with the drawings he would do while waiting for the service. Over a period of time we got to know Earnest and invited him to our pottery studio to try his hand at clay. We were surprised and impressed at how adept he was with the materials . It also was rewarding to see Earnest finish a day's work and leave the studio invigorated, renewed and more assured.
