I got to throw this weekend! I’ve been so wrapped up in moving and paint chips and book sorting and cat corralling and garden planting and shelf hanging and whatever else I’ve been doing, I haven’t taken much time to sit down at the wheel. It felt so good.
Throwing is so calming for me. A chance to concentrate on just one thing. To find and maintain the center.

My name is Maaike Charron, and I'm a potter in St. John's, Newfoundland. I started fiddling around with pottery in summer 2006, when I was told volunteering in the local clay studio would get me free studio time. I mostly taught myself, spending a lot of time poring over books, magazines and websites, and occasionally pestering the more advanced (but very helpful) potters around me with questions. After about two years, I decided I'd gotten good enough to go into business for myself. This blog, started after my first big craft fair, was created to document the process of becoming a wondrously succesful craftsperson. (Or it will document How Not To Do It. We'll see.)
