Hey friends! I'm Aleatha.

I'm the type of person to stop and pet your dog, take a picture of a bug, and marvel at the veins of an especially good leaf. I will almost always say yes to dessert and doodle on everything I'm allowed to. See that mom? I wont doodle on the walls anymore.. unless I'm allowed to. Promise.

In winter of 2017/18 I signed up for a pottery class with Krista Cameron. She's an incredible teacher. I fell blissfully in love with everything about the medium. In the end, I mostly love that you can touch and interact with a piece of art in day to day life. I worked under her tutelage, and built up my own collection of tools to start making a home based studio. In 2019 I added a kiln - the final tool to the kit. When the big ol' pandy hit, I leaned on pottery and went full time maker mode.

I get creative in lots of other ways too. I will always have a soft spot for painting and drawing. I've loved jewelry making since my first jazzy jewelry kits. Every winter calls me to crotchet at least half of a scarf. And decorating a cake makes me feel like some sort of mastermind/masochist as I plunge a fork into a fresh masterpiece. My etsy shop has and will continue to reflect whatever I've got my hands on at the moment.. unless its cake. I'm just going to go ahead and eat that.

My daily goal is to live artfully; To create my life the way I create my work - playfully, creatively, slowly, and with joy. Goals, right?

I would absolutely love to send you a little piece of my life - a momento of my time, my passion, and my love. And I will most likely doodle on the box too.
