White Swan Studio

Sol Sipper's first artist to be featured is a true gem and incredible ceramics artist, Gina Chalfant. She is currently base out of Pittsburgh; PA. Gina says she has always loved to draw and started creating in the pottery realm in 1996! She was focused mainly on historically inspired work at the time. Not until just a few years ago did she discover a process which allows her to transfer her actual drawings to her handmade pieces. Combining these two passions has brought such a unique and inspiring work of art to life. Her pottery collection mainly focuses on the natural world, the English countryside, animals, insects and poetry. Her pieces surely transport me to a place similar to a fairytale. 

I asked Gina how creating such sweet masterpieces makes her feel. She said "When I'm working on my pottery, I can completely lose myself in an almost meditative state. It is still a thrill to open my kiln every single time. 

Currently, you can find Ginas work on her etsy~ www.etsy.com/shop/whiteswanstudio or visit her on Instagram~ whiteswanstudio
