First thing you ever made? “This is one of the first pottery pieces I ever made, and it actually inspired my eye planters. I was teaching a private class with two little girls, friends of a friend, and I was doing this project with them and they were like how do you make an eye? So I made a bunch of eyes and stuck them on a little pinch pot. I kept it and liked it and was thinking about how to elevate that childlike element into a more refined idea.”
