Continuous exploration of techniques, materials, and firing methods shapes every lesson.
Structured sessions cover forming, trimming, glazing, and kiln loading step by step.
An informative look at how different glazes and temperatures affect finished surfaces.
I have been a full-time ceramic artist for over fifteen years, working daily with clay, glaze, and fire. My teaching approach is built on clear explanations of each processโfrom wedging and centering to the final kiln opening. I focus on method and context, helping participants understand why each step matters in the broader framework of pottery making.
In my sessions, we explore wheel throwing, handbuilding, and surface decoration. I share observations from years of studio practice, including common pitfalls and how different clays behave under various conditions. The goal is to provide a structured learning environment where questions are welcomed and experimentation is encouraged.
Whether you are new to pottery or looking to refine specific skills, I offer a range of informational materials and demonstration sessions. All lessons are grounded in my ongoing work as a ceramic artist, ensuring that the techniques discussed are tested and practical.
