“It all began with an undergrad class I took on a whim”

Hi! My name is Kristen, and I’m the artist behind the ceramics you see here in my shop. I have been doing pottery for nearly a decade! It all began with a undergrad class I took on a whim to satisfy a credit requirement. Little did I know, it would become my favorite thing to do. When I had my son in 2020, I left my restaurant management position and decided to pursue ceramics full time (outside of my most important job as a mommy!) I am so grateful to be able to make wonderful things that people gravitate towards and use daily. I find so much joy in making something that ends up being someone’s favorite!

I primarily throw all of my Items by hand on a 40 year old tank-of-a pottery wheel, with a little bit of hand-building sprinkled in. I do a variety of styles, but my favorite thing to do in the studio is carving. I just love the texture and feel that carving can give to a piece!
