Craftsea
I work full time in a paint-your-own pottery studio. I explain painting techniques and ensure the studio remains a calming environment for customers.
I also occasionally paint displays and come up with ideas for holidays such as Christmas, Mother’s Day and more.
Below are some displays painted for the studio, commission work and personal items for myself.
