Woody De Othello is a ceramicist and painter who lives and works in San Francisco. His work has exhibited at the San Jose Museum of Art and the 2022 Whitney Biennial, and can be found in the collections of museums including the San Francisco Museum of Modern Art and the Smithsonian American Art Museum.
