Hello there, I'm Dora.
I'm a ceramic artist living and creating in the Pacific Northwest, though my story began in the rugged landscapes of Wyoming. Growing up near the Rocky Mountains, I was always drawn to making things with my hands — painting, block printing, carving, and exploring whatever materials I could find.
When I found clay, something clicked. Its raw, earthy nature felt familiar, yet full of possibility. It became a way for me to shape the stories, textures, and little wonders I notice in the world around me.
From my home studio in the PNW, I create ceramics inspired by forests, folklore, and the quiet magic of nature — tiny acorns, fuzzy caterpillars, birdsong, mushrooms, and the feeling of wandering through an untamed woodland.
My work is my way of storytelling: a love letter to the natural world, shaped in clay.
