SCAM ALERT: We’ve had many reports of scammers impersonating Handmade Arcade and inviting people to apply for markets, book hotel rooms, and more. Please note that official Handmade Arcade communications will only ever come from an email address ending in @handmadearcade.org. Thank you!
I am a local ceramic artist based out of Pittsburgh, PA. I make functional ceramic vessels that are primarily wheel thrown. I love surface decoration, especially in the form of repeating patterns inspired by nature and botanical designs. I use a technique called sgraffito in which images are etched or carved through layers of colored slip and underglaze before the first firing. Carving into each piece is a slow meditative process that layers visual and tactile texture on my work.
