Once they were back in the area, and before having children, Jasmine was taking and then teaching classes at the Smithy in After doing production pottery work for several years which she reports was exciting and humbling, and ultimately an experiment in what her little home studio could handle,  she is now working on designing pieces that she wants to use in her daily life with family and friends. 

Jasmine says, “I am drawn to texture, to impact, but ultimately enhancing everyday rituals through clay. I am starting to teach again, and after twenty-five years working in clay, it is a true delight to share my love of this medium with the community again!"
