Hannah Burnisky
Hannah has been a practicing potter for 15 years and full-time artist since 2018. As a native of WNC, she holds great respect for nature in her heart and is endlessly inspired by the beautiful scenery in our area, often in her own back yard. Her hope is to capture the peace and magic of our forests with her work so that you may feel the same sense of organic enchantment when you use these functional pieces of art.
Owner, CeramicistMichelle Oglesby
Michelle’s work is a celebration of vibrancy, texture layers, and the interplay of nature and abstract forms. She enjoys exploring the theme of organic forms through radiant colors and rich patterns. Flowers, a major influence in her art, represent resilience, transformation, and the delicate balance between life’s fleeting beauty and its enduring energy.
