Do you like to shop small businesses in Kansas? If you’ve been on the hunt for one-of-a-kind ceramics in all shapes and sizes, you’ve come to the right guy. These stunning pieces could light up your whole room, if given the proper place. Come see what one man’s hands and a bit of heat can accomplish.
A shop out in the middle of rural Kansas, by a small town named Harper, is where he does his best work. Having somewhere relaxing is key to these one-of-a-kind ceramics.

I remember going to school in the area, seeing him show up in my art class to throw giant vases, pots, and bowls on the pottery wheel. Little did I know that he’d soon start making them in every shape and color he could think of!

Now, you’ll find him making stock for his shop, creating something new, or holding classes for others to learn how to throw clay on their own.

It’s amazing what two steady hands and hard work can make sometimes. Vases that look like a ring of trees, mugs with little symbols from the towns we love, and plenty more colorful pieces come out of his kiln year round.

A popular time for the shop happens every fall, when pumpkins of all sorts of shapes and colors fly out of here almost faster than he can make them. If this is an adult pumpkin patch, I’m in! They come in all sizes, of course.

Then again, I think we’d all do great creative work if we had a studio surrounded by plenty of wide open Kansas landscape. Looking at these colors and patterns, I’d have to agree.
