Studio Potter

A studio potter is an artist who personally whips up clay objects, like bowls, vases, or sculptures, in a dedicated workspace called a studio. They design, shape, decorate, and fire their creations using pottery techniques such as hand-building or wheel-throwing. This role combines craftsmanship and artistic expression, allowing for unique, handcrafted pieces. Studio potters often manage every step of production, sometimes selling their work directly to customers or galleries. They focus on the creative process and technical mastery of pottery, blending artistic vision with functional or decorative purposes.
