While working on my MFA degree in Photography at San Jose State University, I became interested in ceramics in general and pottery in particular. I have continued my explorations in clay after graduating in May, 2015, and found that handbuilding holds a world of possibilities when it comes to shapes, textures, and treatment of edges. For a while I worked with slabs and press molds and then I discovered pinching!
I believe in a dialog with clay, in listening for what it would like to express on any given day. All of my pieces are unique for a simple reason that no two conversations are ever the same. My pieces range from functional to fine art. Many of them are inspired by water.
If you are interested in learning more about my work or in aquiring any of the pieces, please contact me directly at gonetangoing@yahoo.com or visit my etsy shop at https://www.etsy.com/shop/TomaTerra
