Clayworks Pottery

The Ventura Pottery Gallery is now back to its pre-Covid hours. Now open every day, 11-6. You, our faithful customers, have kept us going strong. We appreciate your business and continued support!

While some Ventura Pottery Gallery artists pivoted to adjust to COVID-19, Terry Wilson expanded. Working with a small test kiln for firing dictated that her pie...ces would be well, small. But through clay connections she found a larger used kiln in excellent shape. After making adjustments in her studio to accommodate a larger kiln, larger work emerged. Sheltering at homealso provided Terry with much needed time. And as she puts it, I found myself with new found time on my hands. Wonderful, uninterrupted, sweet time that I luxuriated in by immersing myself in the creative process. I was able to spend many weeks refining my techniques and following the paths that naturally fan out as you explore your ideas. Maintaining this stream of consciousness is difficult when you have to constantly step away. One of Terry’s hallmark pieces are her tiny succulent earrings. Now you know why she was working so small with a 6 limit on her work. She is still making plant-related jewelry, but now she is also making large platters, moving in a painterly direction, and adding colors beyond celadon green. She states, I am using clay as canvas and calling on my graphic design skills. My new work, some of it having surface treatments involving leaves and layered color, includes larger items such as plates, vases and mugs. Fellow potter and gallery member Rebecca Catterall commented, Terry’s new platters have an iridescent quality you don’t often see in pottery. The light dances on top. And I appreciate the time she puts in as a volunteer including redesigning the Guild website." The Ventura Pottery Gallery is located at 1567 Spinnaker Drive, Suite 105 in Ventura Harbor. We ask visitors to wear a mask, limit the number of people in the gallery to 3 and practice social distancing. We have hand sanitizer available if you would like to examine the pottery.. TheGallery is open seven days a week: Wed.-Monday., 11-6, and Tuesday, noon-4. For more information visitwww.venturapottersguild.org.
