“I want to share my studio, my pots, my successes and failures, and most of all, my knowledge! I took my first course in pottery back in 1973, in Toronto. By 1976 I had moved to Brockville and was fortunate to become a student of Charlie Scott. He trained my eye first. My eyes have led my fingers ever since!”
Bio
Diana Earle has worked with Clay since 1973 and became a professional potter in 1981. She specialized in finely crafted thrown vessels, later exploring hand-built sculptural forms. She embraced both Raku and smoke-firing techniques that enhanced her work.
Diana’s training began at St. Lawrence College. She has since been taught by many international Clay Artists. Her work is part of many private collections around the world.
