No, since I avoid working with toxic or heavy metallic oxides, I cannot obtain a large panel of bright colors.

A Journey in Clay and Fire

All her pieces are meticulously handcrafted, mostly on the wheel, a technique that endlessly captivates her.

After shaping the clay on the wheel into bowls, cups, or plates, she trims the bottoms and adds handles or spouts when needed.

Following a bisque firing, some pieces are coated with her homemade ash and clay glaze, resulting in smooth, delicate colors after a 1260° gas kiln firing.

Others undergo a unique smock-firing method, fired at the same temperature, but surrounded by collected plant materials, creating smoky shades from red to black.

The firing process, taking around eight hours, is where the magic happens, as clay turns into stoneware. After a day of cooling, she uncovers her finished pieces, a culmination of weeks of work, ready to share with the world.
