“Creativity has always been a part of my life. I have experimented with painting, drawing, metal and wood. It wasn’t until I took my first pottery class at the Worcester Center for crafts in 1995 that I discovered my true passion for working with clay. I do not consider myself a potter but a clay artist. I love to incorporate wood and metal into a lot of my creations. I am happiest when I’m playing with clay. I have a studio in Brimfield, Massachusetts.”

Sandra Eaton creates functional and sculptural pottery often drawing on her painting skills when creating a ceramic piece, experimenting with glaze as paint and thinking of the clay form as a canvas. She is known for her one-of-a-kind whimsical gnomes. Sandy resides in Wilbraham, MA where she creates her award-winning artistic pottery which has been displayed in shows and competitions in the US and Europe. 

Janine Marie Adamo is a mixed media artist whose work is rooted in expression, intuition, and layered storytelling. After earning her BFA in Graphic Design from the Savannah College of Art and Design and spending 17 years in the design world, she returned to art during a pivotal moment in her life, using painting, drawing, and art journaling as a way to heal and reconnect.

Her process is guided by curiosity and exploration, building each piece through layers of color, texture, and movement. Inspired by nature, music, and emotion, Janine’s work often reflects organic forms like flowers and birds, with each layer revealing a piece of her story.
