My stoneware ceramics are fired using solar generated electricity  produced by thirty two 100 watt panels on my garage roof.

Ceramic Classes at My Studio 

I am now offering classes on hand building ceramic planters in my Oceano studio.  The class is four hours long and students make three planters which are then fired.  I teach both beginning and advanced classes.  Next classes will be in November and dates have not yet been determined.  Stay tuned to this site or contact me directly.
