Meet the Maker
I am a third generation artist--my grandfather, mother, aunts, brother and my daughter are all artists. I taught art for several years. Now I am a full-time maker. I earned an MFA degree with a major in ceramics. I also have a mother/daughter shop (the original RetroRamics) on Etsy.
How it’s Made
Liquid stoneware clay is poured into a plaster mold. Once dry, it is removed from the mold fired to a low temperature. The piece is then brush glazed and fired a second time to a higher temperature.
