    Let the Laughin' Gnomes show you why

Get To Know Your Gnome

Since I was around 4 years old, and just a wee gnome navigating the gardens of life (just kidding, I am a human man… but certainly still navigating the gardens of life), pottery has been a love of mine. Though we lost touch with each other and had what can only be described as an on-off relationship, I began my throwing career when I attended a small school in Grass Valley, CA. After a year of learning to throw and building and firing several kilns, I attended a pottery and kiln building workshop. We built a 6-chamber climbing kiln; each chamber was 6’ x 6’ x 6’ with a 40’ foot chimney at the top of the hill. We mined the clay and glaze materials and made our own bricks to build the kiln. At the end of the 30-day workshop, we spent three days firing our new friend.

​Connecting Back to Our Roots

​As I've grown older, I’ve realized this interaction of clay and humans brought me into a closer harmony with Mother Earth and how we are inherently woven to clay throughout our lives. I believe our souls are tied to clay, which is why I do what I do today with passion, a loving attention to detail and joy. Our naked clay evokes this relationship and inspires both us and our clients to interact with the Earth at a primal level, bringing us all more in tune with what the world around us has to offer. 

Get Ready to Get Naked… Pottery

​Shape your own future by learning the timeless art of pottery right from the comfort of your own home! It’ll be like recreating the iconic scene from that hit ‘90s movie… Though we can’t guarantee the same outcome, or payday… 
We do guarantee that you will be equipped with the skills you need to create your own dishes, cups, ramekins and more by the end of this 5 week exciting, educational and enjoyable course. 
Let the Laughin’ Gnomes guide you through exactly how you can throw your own pottery, and create a living doing it.

Our Sacred Source

​The rich red clay we use is from the Ohio River Valley where it is mined from extensive clayfields left in the wake of retreating glaciers 12,000 years ago. So it’s a bit more of a higher quality than what you likely used in your grade 3 art class, and definitely no Play-Dough. Ancient cultures used this clay to make cooking pots, storage jars, water jugs and figurines. Iron oxide gives the clay its uniform red color, and provides a fine texture suitable for both thrown and sculpted pieces.
