About Me

Introduction

Hi, my name is Gypsy I live in Washington state and love making all kinds of pottery items and most other forms of art as well.

What I Love about Ceramics

I love the freedom of the material to make almost anything I can think of and Glazing.

How I started with ceramics

In the Mid 90’s I started visiting a ceramics store and eventually started helping out until the owner had an accident and had to close the shop.  After that I still did some cast ceramics until most shops in my area closed down.   In 2008 I started collage courses at first to get a graphics design degree but ended up taking ceramics instead and got my Associates degree in Fine Arts.     I now practice  cast ceramics, hand building  and thrown pottery.

What inspires me

Everything just about.

What I'm working on at the moment

More things then I should be.

My Artist Statement

I work in both thrown and slip cast pottery experimenting with form, Glaze, and mixed media incorporation.  I want to bring all  forms of ceramic arts into play with the intent to create excitement and engagement from those who may experience my pieces.
