About: My jewelry reflects the things that inspire me: nature, beauty and sacred symbols. I work with Precious Metal Clay, sterling silver, bronze, semi-precious stones and vintage findings to create organic designs that feel hand made and one of a kind.
About: I sell one of a kind prints and wearable items! I am in the Bay Area and in Reno, Nevada working on letterpress prints, books, and more. If I am not in the studio teaching I am usually hanging out with my two chihuahuas!
About: My ceramic work is primarily thrown on the wheel and hand-painted with underglaze. It is made from very durable porcelain clay which is food safe, and microwave and dishwasher friendly. I often color the clay itself using powdered mason stains. Then I paint on top of that colored background and fire the clay in a high-fire reduction kiln. I like to imagine each piece after it leaves my studio and continues its life in someone’s home. It brings me endless satisfaction to share with others and communicate through clay. I believe that daily rituals with handmade vessels can enrich our lives with joy, meaning, and community.

About: I am a local Berkeley glass artist. During November and December my North Berkeley studio will be open on most weekends – look for the open signs for my glass studio across from Indian Rock Park.
About: All handmade items are created with time and care. Some fiber pieces have repurposed and recycled elements. I enjoy drawing in my sketchbook from now and then which is the source of inspiration for my digital prints.
About: When working, I rarely has a finished piece in mind, but more an interest in seeing where the process of making will lead. I approach my work with curiosity and a direct quality of line that has aliveness. Although the work is personal it taps into the universal. My hope is that you will enjoy experiencing the work as much as I enjoy making it. Studio visits and small group classes are always welcome. Instagram: @thelaurenari
About: I love creating high fire porcelain work that is evocative of the graceful curves and forms found in nature but with an element of fanciful imagination. Wheel thrown and hand modified work in exotic forms is my passion.
