NATALIE THOMAS

Natalie Thomas, the owner of Blue Mountain Pottery, has been a studio potter and ceramics instructor for over 20 years. 

She creates both wheel-thrown and hand-built pieces that can take on a functional or whimsical form.

In the Spring Natalie created her wheel thrown happy fish, chickens and flying pigs. Now she has continued this theme by creating mini versions of them in an ornament. Time to add some charm to your Christmas tree!

Add interest to your holiday table with Natalie’s wheel thrown bowls and cheese platters. A whole new level of fun was reached while applying geometrical designs with colored slip on her pieces.

What’s the holidays without fairies and gnomes! 

Every year Natalie tries to create different gnome and fairy pieces. I heard some of the gnomes are even riding on snails and birds. There is always something new to add to your collection!

Lynn Baxley

KAREN SKILLETT

NATALIE THOMAS

Making things with her hands has always been a joy for Lynn. Being a retired art teacher she has never met an art material she didn’t like, but recently clay has been her main focus. An ardent gardener with lots of art in her own garden, it seemed  a natural choice to make ceramic art for others' gardens. And patios. And sunrooms.  Clay is made for texture and Lynn uses lots of texture in her  pieces. She likes the rough edges and “fingerprints” left on a piece that illustrate its hand made appeal. Mask and planters, feeders and garden adornments are in her current inventory. You are sure to find a gift for your favorite gardener (or yourself!)
