the maker behind claymake

hi, i'm kate, thank you for stopping by my corner of the world.

i create handmade pottery intended to brighten everyday life, as it has done with mine …

about fourteen years ago, i was diagnosed with a tremor i thought would hinder my ability to create the art i wanted. and then there was ceramics - the type of art that doesn't require you to draw a straight line or paint inside the lines. when i'm sitting down at the wheel, it's a rhythm that doesn’t get interrupted by my shaking. when i am making pottery, i find joy in the movement and a passion for the process -

beginning and ending with love.

every piece is created, glazed, fired and packaged by me

i am a one-woman force behind claymake by kate

inspired by nature

the beauty,

the connection,

the feeling
