As a functional potter, Liz Herlevsen balances art & family in Batesville, Virginia. She is equal parts distracted & inspired by the mountains, trails, & varied culture of the area. The siren's call of earthy wonderful clay keeps her exploring techniques & aesthetics while always producing functional, unique objects that people need to keep their everyday life joyful & mindful. Her work is available through her studio – Crozet, Virginia, & the Batesville Market – Batesville, VA. She looks forward to the next odd request for a pot from someone she has yet to meet, and you can follow her on Instagram @redmudhen.
