About Lisa

The studio pictured here is where I go most days, to push clay boundaries, share ideas with other potters, and just have fun. That is my Dad in the background, so pleased that his daughter has found a passion to fill the empty nest. When I am not playing with clay, I am supporting families of young children at the earliest detection of developmental delay. I live with my husband of over 30 years, in rural SE Pennsylvania, and this studio is Art Space on Main in Elkton, Maryland.

​

I also have a home studio where I fire and build. My wheel-thrown and hand-built pottery is functional for home and garden. My pieces imbue images of Caribbean oceans, floral gardens, and happiness, while bathing the eye in color and the hand in sensation. I work in a variety of cone 6 clay bodies because each offers gifts in size, texture and color, responding to my hands and glazes in unique ways. My sculptural work is whimsical and fun, including snow-women, mermaids, yoga frogs and baby-nest-eggs. Inspiration and humor come from my life experiences, but each piece will tell a different story to the observer, making them unique and personal
