Mudbug Creations is a little business that gives me a big happy!

It began for me in high school, with an absolutely fabulous teacher with a passion for ceramics. After he got me started, I never wanted to stop. However, I was always a student of the sciences and pursued and achieved a career in physical therapy.

I was not completely happy without working in the arts. I needed some creative freedom. After a three year hiatus in art, I joined the fine arts program at Drury University. Here, another wonderful teacher encouraged me to expand on my pottery skills and open a business.

I enjoy my art and hope that other's do as well. My family has supported my little business and, with their help, a small gazebo was built in the backyard. It housed my kiln for years until my husband and I purchased a new house with a second building out back. I now operate out of my own personal studio on my property, 9 months of the year. I close for 3 months in the winter, cause it is dang cold!

Mudbug has been a fun and challenging endeavor and I hope to keep making for years to come!
