Cathy Francis

As I immerse myself in gaining technical skills in ceramic processes I think of myself as a ‘Seeker of Knowledge.’ I am coming back to clay after a twenty-five-year career in publishing and bookselling. My introduction to clay was at OCA in the early 1980s where I earned an Associate of OCA.
​
As a beginner potter, I am constantly being tempted by different techniques from gas-fired to wood-fired ceramics. I am inspired by the brushstrokes of calligraphy and sumi-e painting, incorporating them into may of my pieces.
