Post-pandemic, I yearned for calmness and found it by taking classes at a local community studio (The Warwick Pottery Studio), and that’s when "Thrown Around Clayworks" (TAC) was born. At first, the creative process was daunting. Some things came back very quickly, and I had to relearn others. I dreaded glazing, it felt like a chore, unpredictable, frustrating, and often disappointing. But I was not ready to give up.  After two years of experimentation, I found my rhythm and developed a glazing style that brought me so much joy. Each piece came a new opportunity to create, combining commercial glazes in ways that felt uniquely my own.
