My own evolution in pottery and the discovery of my unique voice is attributed to the varied interactions I've had with potters from different walks of life, all thanks to this podcast. Tune in, as we explore the power of learning from others, the value of pottery residencies, and how these elements can help shape and influence your unique voice quicker.
