Say hello to Jennifer from Spinning Star Studio. I am a potter located in Colorado Springs, Colorado.
A little bit about me.
I have always been one of those people that has to make things. I remember when I was a kid making hot pan holders, macaroni pictures, and flowers with fabric and pipe cleaners. This creative energy has transferred to pottery. I love the immediacy of clay, the physical nature of the work, and the mind-body connection. I can go into the studio with a new idea and try it out right way. Whether it’s a new technique, a glaze experiment, or a twist on something I’ve already done, I can get creative and see results soon. The versatility of clay lets me express my various interests. I always have several themes running at any given time in my art. They are usually related my interests like gardening, biking, or animals. I prefer to work in small series or batches, exploring the theme, then returning to it later when inspiration has struck again. This keeps my work fresh and unique.
