What began as a simple desire to make my very own pottery mug in 1994 quickly evolved into a life-long passion for creating with clay.

Welcome! I’m Cherie, a self-taught potter living in the foothills of western Maine. My home studio is surrounded by peaceful woods where nature’s beauty quietly shapes my work. I find inspiration in nature, and explore organic shapes, earthy colors, patterns, and textures in clay. My functional and decorative ceramics are designed for everyday use… pieces that feel good in hand and that bring a sense of calm and connection into daily life.

Studio days are balanced with daily life. I assist at an anthropological foundation and also teach clay. Wherever I am, I can often be found with a favorite mug in hand. Using my handmade pottery brings me a smile. I hope my ceramics radiate the same joy for you, and become a treasured part of your everyday.
