Sandy Brown

Britain

Wild clay, wild spirit. Joy in making.

She's spent decades advocating for the joy and freedom in ceramic making.

Sandy Brown trained with Takeichi Kawai in Japan and makes bold, energetic earthenware—decorated with slips, oxides, and a distinctive gestural freedom. She's also a teacher, writer, and advocate for approaching ceramics with spontaneity and joy. Her book 'Freedom in Clay' captures her philosophy: that pottery can be liberating, expressive, and deeply personal.
How might you bring more joy to your making?
