Pottery & Ceramics
Pottery is my hands-on creative outlet. I love the slow, grounding process of shaping clay and turning it into simple, useful pieces I enjoy having around and using every day.

Why pottery
I started in 2025 and got hooked quickly. It's a calm, tactile break from screens, and I like ending a session with a real object I can use.
Process
I work in a community studio: throw or hand-build, trim, bisque, dip glaze, fire. Simple shapes, quiet glazes.
What I've learned
Plan for shrinkage, keep walls even, and accept that the kiln has the last word. The fun is in making, not perfection.
