Porcelinen is a beautiful ceramic studio in my neighborhood, and I’m so grateful it’s run by such a thoughtful and skilled friend and artist. The workshops are calm and well-paced, even when ceramics can get stressful. I took on a pretty ambitious ornament project in one class, and with Vanessa’s guidance and practical tips, I actually pulled it off. I also have several of her pieces at home, my favorite is a mug that makes me feel a little fancy every time I use it. Her work has such care and artistry. Highly recommend for anyone looking to learn ceramics or bring something special...
