New Onine Ceramics Gift Store for Jennifer Joyce
Jennifer Joyce, Santa Monica potter and ceramic artist, has launched a new online ceramic gift store!
I take ceramics classes at Jennifer's Santa Monica pottery studio and helped her set up the online store.
With the opening of the store, Jennifer announced some new designs and products.
She has been working on some new glazes and designs including her Citrus line of bowls and mugs with a beautiful green texture on the outside and bright orange inside.
I also really like the Moonscape bowls that have a stylish black and white texture outside and a blast of chartreuse on the inside.
Jennifer has also been working with a photo transfer technique in which the photo can be reproduced in sepia tones on tiles and ornaments.
It has a very classic look and Jennifer adds beautiful glazed designs around the photos.
Online she advertises pet memorial plaques and pet ornaments, but the process can be used for any photo.
Jennifer has also been working on a wedding section but it is not yet live.
She can make custom bridal party gifts, on-of-a-kind table decorations and centerpieces.
I also think her bowls and other table ware make a much better wedding gift than typical registry items.

I've been doing ceramics for a couple of years now and I guess people have been diggin' it, so Jennifer Joyce offered me a show at her gallery!

I take weekly classes with Jennifer Joyce in her Santa Monica ceramics studio.
It is not easy being a traditional potter in Los Angeles.
Amazed at the variety of work she produces I thought I'd share her work through a little interview.
Jennifer creates all kinds of amazing sculpture and functional items in here studio.
She hosts wine and clay parties and even helps Girls Scouts get their badges in pottery.
But some of her most intriguing projects are larger scale works she produces for home construction and interior design.
