ABOUT

Ceramics hooked me 20 years ago the first time I sat at a wheel. I fell in love with clay and everything about making pottery. Trusting to serendipity I left my teaching career and enrolled in a 2-year crafts school. After graduation I built my home studio and have never looked back.

I savor this creative life as I shepherd my pieces from throwing, to trimming, to firing, to glazing and to firing again. I still get a kick from starting my day wrapping up pots to ship out to a far-flung audience. The hours will always be long and tiring but it is time spent absorbed in the moment! After all these years I still sometimes catch myself feeling glum on a Sunday evening but then I suddenly remember "Oh yeah! I get to make some pottery in the morning!" I feel so lucky to have found what I was meant for.

Everything in my shop was created by me on a pottery wheel here in the mountains of western North Carolina near Asheville. I take pleasure in bringing clay and color together to create useful, beautiful things for you to enjoy every day for a lifetime. My shop philosophy is simple: offer quality, functional handmade pottery with outstanding customer service.
