Check out my profile all my other fiber and clay workshops, in-person and online available.

Join me at my Columbia City clay and fiber art studio for a Berry Bowl Handbuilding Pottery class.

I'll walk you through this unique process for creating a highly functional and beautiful piece of handpainted pottery.


We'll be using a buff clay with lots of grog that gives our finished pieces a rustic intuitive beauty, perfect as a background for our drawings in colored clay slips.


I'll be firing your pieces for you, first to bisque temperature, and applying a clear matte glaze, and then to stoneware Cone 6 - so the earthiness remains. Your pieces will be durable, dishwasher-safe, food-safe and microwave-safe.


I have 30 years of working with clay and mixed-media, mostly in the context of sculpture and installation, including a BFA in Arts and Crafts from UGA and an MFA from University of Washington's storied Ceramics program. My work has always delved into our intimacy with nature and desire, and my pottery line caries that forward into the intimate spaces of those who welcome pieces into their lives. My designs often come to me, I like to think, from the Cosmic Mother, speaking to me when I meditate and journey in nature.


While I welcome beginners, you might find it best to have some experience with clay to take this class. Total beginners might find it challenging. You can take one of my other clay classes to get a little experience, like Little Bowls or Nature Plates .

The Garden Workshops are held in a small urban forest with towering heritage Douglas Fir trees, that create a cool and pleasant shade garden, even in the height of summer. Late JUNE thru early SEPTEMBER.

Workshops are held rain or shine, because there is a covered workshop and a festival tent.

OCTOBER-MAY Workshops are held inside my cozy studio in the trees with a woodfire stove!
