My Background

I have been working in clay since 1970. I took my first pottery class in college (UC Berekeley), and knew that pottery was going to be my profession in life. I met my husband who also was a ceramic artist, and together we have built our lives making ceramic art, teaching ceramics, and building our ceramic handprinting business to what it is today. We have owned and operated our ceramic studio, The Full Moon Studio and Gallery, in Morro Bay, California, since 1974.

Our Ceramic Handprint Business brought in the extra income that we needed to live in our beautiful seaside community, raise our daughter and spend quality time with her, as well as continue to create our one-of-a-kind sculpture pieces.

There was such a tremendous interest from our "Pawprint" clients who wanted to start their own clay handprint business that we began our ceramic handprint training program to make baby, children, and even pet clay prints. The success of our in studio one-to-one training program proved to us that we were able to train clients who had no prior experience in clay. Bascially, it takes paying attention to detail, and enjoying working with babies, kids, and families.

What we realized is that not everyone was able to come for our personalized in studio training. So, we have created a Home Study training program for those people (moms, dads, families, and pottery studio owners) that want to learn at their own pace in the comfort of their own home or studio. Our baby handprint and footprint Home Study Program is an instructional one hour and 45 minute step-by-step DVD and 21 chapter comprehensive easy to follow manual that details exactly how to make these ceramic baby handprints and helps get your business up and running from start to finish. We offer technical support for both training options.
