My Story
From Creek to Kiln
Bitch Creek runs through the Teton Valley on the west side of the Tetons, cold and clear off the mountains of Idaho. My studio sits near its banks. It's a small workshop where every piece begins as a lump of clay and ends as something you'll reach for every day.
I make pottery for real life. Cups sturdy enough for a weeknight. Mugs that feel right in your hands at 6 a.m. Bowls that go from oven to table without ceremony. Each piece is thrown on the wheel, trimmed, glazed, and fired by hand. No two are identical.
I find inspiration from the world around me. My imagination and drive to create are continuously fueled by the place I live in and the people I meet.
Process
Every piece is wheel-thrown, bisque fired, glazed with food-safe materials, and fired again. The whole process takes about four weeks from wet clay to finished pot.
Care
All of our work is dishwasher and microwave safe. Hand washing isn't required but it's gentler. Avoid sudden temperature changes — don't move a piece straight from the fridge to a hot oven. With basic care, these pots will outlast you.
