Lorna Newlin has been creating pottery for over 20 years. In 2002 she followed her dream, left the corporate world and opened her own studio, Sausalito Pottery. A resident of Sausalito for 10 years, she found the perfect place, a pottery studio that had been on Bridgeway for 14 years, but few seemed to know about it. She has opened her doors to the public and behind the open shelves of the gallery, people can watch Lorna making pots on the wheel, creating sculpture, loading kilns, whatever the artist is doing that day.
Lorna also teaches classes for adults and children. The classes are small so there is lots of individual attention and the students progress quickly.
Lorna loves to create many different styles of pottery from functional dinnerware, whimsical sculptures, unique square plates, and Japanese style pottery wood fired in an anagama kiln at Pope Valley Pottery. She also does many commissions ranging from personalized birthday and wedding platters, to custom designed accent tiles. |
