My name is Cherie Peyton and I live in Sydney, Australia. I originally
attended evening pottery classes in the early 90s when my sons were
small – I enjoyed it so much I never stopped. I now teach wheel
throwing and porcelain jewellery evening classes myself for our Local
Community College and love passing on my knowledge and skills to
newcomers. The kinds of pots I enjoy making are large carved bowls, I
am intrigued by tree roots and branches which have a big influence in my
pots. Flowers are another favourite of mine and I also love making
porcelain roses and the porcelain jewellery.

I’m a clay artist in Tucson, Arizona. I do sculpture and some hand-built
semi-functional pottery. I’m mostly
untrained and I consider my work to be Outsider art. The content of the work tends towards the macabre,
the grotesque, geek culture, odd fossils, and Judaica.
Here are a few links:
