“What I like most is making artful pottery that will be used every day—objects that bring the intimacy of the handmade into people’s homes and that encourage us to stop and enjoy the experience of dining. My work is an expression of the joy and gratitude I have for being alive transformed into the colors, textures and forms of pottery. I work in hopes that some of this spirit will be contributed to your table.”
Ellen Grenadier has been making tableware and custom tiles and murals for over 30 years. After receiving a BA from Connecticut College she studied salt glazing under a grant from the Tiffany Foundation and went on to become a co-founding member of Clay Dragon Studios, a clay cooperative in Cambridge, MA. Twelve years ago, she moved her studio and gallery to Monterey, MA and the move to the Berkshire Hills, an area of forests, fields and mountains has deeply influenced her work. She has shown her functional clay work and custom tiles and murals throughout the United States. Currently she is producing a line of stoneware that incorporates impressions from the natural world in elegant bowls, plates, sushi platters, wall pieces, and more.
