Hi, I’m Erin! Originally from the Pacific Northwest of the US, I now live in Walthamstow, East London with two very international cats, one husband, and 200 mugs (as is the pottery tradition).
Growing up in Oregon gave me an unchangeable love of old forests, the Pacific Ocean, and maybe-dormant volcanoes always on the horizon - colours from moss, lichen, mud, ash, granite, and river water that now influence my work. I focus on functionalware, primarily teapots and their companion pieces. Teapots are my jam because they require such full focus, and then come to life as little creatures of their own once they’re fired. And we all need more little creatures, I think.
In 2024, I quit my corporate job to take a yearlong creative sabbatical. A few months into 2025, I knew that I wanted to pursue pottery full time. This year, I’m working on refining my glazes and practicing proportional pieces where handles, lids, and spouts feel in harmony.
