About Us
MEET THE FOUNDER:
Marie-Josée (aka. MJ) is a proudly eclectic creator. She holds graduate degrees in library science and business administration and is a Certified Professional Coach. While enjoying every aspect of her business advisory and leadership coaching practice, she also finds herself gravitating back to the potter’s wheel to keep life in balance. Pottery making is her favorite way to meditate, because let’s face it, the processes of centering clay and centering the mind are linked. She fearlessly pursues several endeavours. She believes in living fully, intentionally, and is committed to embracing each moment. After all, we live every day!Artistic Inspiration
Pottery making is fraught with pitfalls. Things can go wrong in so many ways and at every step of the production process. To us, it makes it even more interesting. While we strive to master our technique, we also love nothing more than exploring the accident. We believe in the value of the bumps on the road as opportunities to learn and grow. We create accidents on purpose with carving, shaping thrown or hand-built pieces. We recognize the uniqueness of each piece and celebrate the surprises. We hope you will enjoy them too.
