Introduction	My name is Rachel Weiss and I live at the “Jersey Shore” in New Jersey, USA. I make wheel-thrown and hand-built functional ware, plus pretty porcelain hair accessories
What I Love about Ceramics	Infinite learning opportunity!
How I started with ceramics	At 47 I decided to take wheel lessons and hated it for the first couple of months. I stuck with it though! Five years later, I’m still learning everyday.
What inspires me	Nature, cool colors, flowers, all things feminine.
What I'm working on at the moment	Building inventory- efficiency and consistency in throwing. Trying to master some new forms.
