I am themarypotter – a small batch maker of functional and decorative pottery. What began as a hobby in 1993 grew into a more intentional and inspired production. I create mostly one-of-a-kind pieces in my home studio in Burlington and at Raku workshops. Raku-fired pottery pieces are more decorative, and are my favourite type of ceramics.

My functional pottery is usually decorated with hand-painted designs, various carving techniques or the addition of a sculpted goldfish, my signature design.
