BRENNA DEE CERAMICS

I've always loved to make things with my hands. Recently I stumbled upon an old first grade worksheet that asked about my dreams and aspirations. When asked what my favorite food was, I responded "tacos." When asked what I wanted to be when I grew up, I said "an artist."... My work is wheel thrown from porcelain and crystalline glazed, and I mix all of my glazes by hand. I love and hate working with crystalline glazes because they are in turns fickle and breathtaking; opening the kiln still feels like a combination between Christmas morning and a doctor's visit where you're getting some important test results. Because crystalline glaze is almost like a painting, I work to make my pieces like a canvas- I'm very focused on clean, elegant lines and profiles.
