Mary Ellen Nikkola
Ceramics
Watching seasons change in our beautiful Sierra Nevadas for many years, I have been inspired to incorporate nature into my clay pots. Each design is a unique combination of color and texture that is stunning whether on display or on a dining table… a perfect combination of form and function. What I create with my hands is a true expression of what I see with my eyes and feel in my heart. Nature makes me happy! I received a Masters of Fine Arts (MFA) from Eastern Michigan University in metalsmithing. I have taught at Foothill College in Los Altos and Cabrillo College in Aptos, California and was co- owner of Steven’s Printing Company in Palo Alto California.
