ARTIST STATEMENT

I create ceramic pieces meant to brighten daily life—adding color, personality, and joy to everyday objects. Working primarily in stoneware, I hand-paint original designs with underglazes and carve into the surface so the clay body shows through, creating natural lines that give each piece rhythm and depth. A clear glaze, fired to cone 6, unifies the surface and enhances the colors.

Drawn to color and detail, I spent years in television adding visual moments—through sets, props, graphics, or wardrobe—that helped tell the story. That same instinct now guides my ceramics, where the surface becomes a place for play, energy, and surprise. Inspired by nature, I create functional pieces meant to be held and used—objects that invite people to slow down, notice small details, and bring warmth, color, and happiness.

Jenn lives in Connecticut with her husband, Eric, and their four sons.
