Making mud pies for a living
I started my Etsy shop in 2012, shortly after I decided that I wanted to take ceramic art seriously. I studied ceramics at Utah State University where I learned how to make my own clay and glazes from raw materials, which I still do today! I have a small studio space, and I make the best use of the space I have as I can.
Since I opened my Etsy shop, I have shipped work all over the world, from here in the U.S. all the way to places like Japan and Singapore.
I make my pieces with porcelain clay that I make using the raw dry materials, coat them with a glaze made by me, and then I decorate them using underglazes and gold luster overglaze to get the colors and lines that I want.
So far, the shop is a one-woman business. I started making pottery in Utah when I was in school, and in 2014 after I graduated with my BFA, I worked for a year as a studio tech at Bard College at Simon's Rock in Massachusetts. Now I have a small home studio based in Wyoming where I have been since 2015.
I want to put elegant and cheerful pottery out into the world in hopes that I can brighten up your day.
