Mad Monkey Ceramic Studio Heavy Textured Pottery Functional Bowl

Every piece I make starts with clay and ends with a question: what can this surface become?

I hand-throw and hand-build ceramics in my Red Deer Studio. Functional vessels you’ll actually use, whimsical forms that earn a second look, and sculptural work that holds its own on any shelf.

The glaze combinations are mine. The surface tests are mine. Every piece that leaves this studio is entirely handmade from forming to firing.
