Meet the Instructor

Jordan Shea began working with clay as a wheel-throwing student at Hand/Thrown in 2019 and expanded into slipcasting several years ago. When not in class, you can find Jordan working in their small, neon-lit home studio. Jordan's work often has humble beginnings, but the end results are dynamic and unique with vibrant colors, detailed images, and flowing glaze drips.
