Artist statement:

My name is Gwen Copeland and I like to make stuff!

Cooking, baking, gardening, home improvements – but most of all I love making “stuff” with clay.

I really started working with clay around 5 years ago when I retired from teaching. The kids in the HS carpentry classes built a small pottery studio that was moved to my house. Once it was there, wired and plumbed, I never stopped making. 

The thing about clay is there’s always something different to try and so much to learn. I’ve never gotten bored or felt like it was work. Every kiln load can be a surprise. At times I even feel I've touched that thing called "Art" and fall in love.  An added bonus, I’ve met a lot of great people along the way who continue to inspire and teach me. 

For this chapter of my life I’m grateful.
