Janis Wilson Hughes Personal GalleryBelow are pictures from my personal life. Finally an opportunity arose for me to focus on pottery full time in 2009, and I took it! Some of my peers, friends, and family were baffled by this extreem career change, but I had to follow my heart. I haven't looked back once since taking the great leap. I follow my heart and my interests in the designs I create, and I'm thankful that I have found galleries, exhibitions, and publications like Clay Times Magazine and Pottery Making Illustrated Magazine that support, sell, and publish my work. I am also blessed to have found a wonderfully supportive group of artist friends and art lovers (in person and on the internet) who give me encouragement and inspiration daily. In addition to teaching adult pottery classes, I have recently started sharing my techniques through workshops, 'how-to' articles for pottery magazines, and full length instructional DVDs. I'm excited to put my all into my daily journey as a full time clay artist. These days I'm simply a happy potter.
