Hello, I'm Olena G

I am a ceramic artist passionate about creating handcrafted pottery that is both beautiful and functional. I studied pottery through Levels 1–4 at Pikes Peak State College in Colorado, where I developed skills in wheel throwing, hand-building, glazing, and kiln-firing techniques. Now based in the Pacific Northwest, I draw inspiration from the region's landscapes, forests, mountains, and coastline. Each piece I create is individually shaped, finished, and glazed by hand, making every item unique. I create functional pottery, including mugs, bowls, serving pieces, yarn bowls, and decorative ceramics. Through my pottery, I hope to create pieces that bring warmth, beauty, and enjoyment to everyday life.
