Shawna has a background in fine art and design and has made clothing and jewelry for many years including designing merchandise for bands and festivals. In 2020 Shawna started to work in clay and has been captivated and delighted by the process. With a focus on surface design, Shawna has found ceramics to be a challenging and gratifying medium. Shawna hand paints many of the pieces as well as combining glazes in an exploration of texture and colour in useful objects that encourage the user to be really present in everyday moments.
