About Me

Introduction

Hi, my name is Anette, I’m originally from Sweden. My interests include history, research, colors, forms, design, individual expression, cultures and languages.

What I Love about Ceramics

I really enjoy the process of creating ceramics, from the research and initial concept, through to production and glazing.

How I started with ceramics

As a child I had a wonderful ceramics teacher that got me interested in clay, I dabbled in it again in college, but didn’t get serious about it until a few years ago when I joined a Makerspace, and really got a chance to use the skills I have gained as a graphic designer in a more three dimensional space.

 

What inspires me

I’m inspired by cultures, history, animals, family, friends, nature, lessons and challenges.

What I'm working on at the moment

I’ve been playing along with the Great Pottery Showdown challenges.

My Artist Statement

I aspire to keep learning, and in the process create beautiful and sometimes useful work. So far I have made anything from shot glasses, cups, mugs, plates, bowls, jars, goblets, vases, decorative items, jewelry and sculptures.

My CV

Received first place blue ribbons and medal from the Dallas Texas State Fair for raku pieces, mixed underglaze/glaze and a cup project.
