Shadow has been working in clay for the last 20 years and has made his living solely by creating
pottery for the last seven. You may recognize his work from local and regional craft fairs. Most recently
he was featured in the December 2009 issue of Ceramics Monthly. He currently works out of
Chattanooga, Tennessee.
"I have put together a workshop curriculum that is both educationally sound and interesting. I teach
how to create your work in a fun environment with a twist of professionalism and tools to help you
along your path with clay. You will learn to take your work to the next level in a display of techniques
through the forms I have worked on through the years as well as practicing new forms and letting
students inspire each other as well as aspire themselves to new levels of creativity."
