Even as a child, I’ve always had a tactile imagination that likes to freeze moments in time. I wonder what would it be like to wring water from a cloud like a sponge? To squeeze burned embers back together into a new form? To pluck a puddle from the ground and save its perfectly unique shape? This playful need to capture nature in unnatural ways is something I constantly explore and have fun with in my ceramics work.
My approach is minimalist but warm, a Nordic aesthetic influenced by my Swedish grandmother. I pare my concepts to their simplest elements, leaving enough to evoke a subtle feeling or memory.
I am also drawn to pottery’s ability to convey visual and tactile experiences simultaneously. I use both handbuilt and wheelthrown porcelain forms, hand-carvings, slips, and glazes to create or obscure texture, light, and shadow and explore the relationship between what we see and what we feel when we interact with ceramics.
Born in Southern Massachusetts, Kimberly Allison studied film production and graphic design at Boston University, graduating in 2005. She spent the first decade of her career as a designer in Boston. In 2012, she took a ceramics class as a date night with her husband and became enamored with clay. In late 2016, after immersing herself in classes and studio workshops, Kim decided to shift careers to pursue ceramics full time. Her backgrounds in film and in design contribute to her love of storytelling and her enthusiasm for the art of making by hand. Her works have been featured in juried fine craft shows around the country and most recently in her first solo exhibition at the Southern Vermont Arts Center. Kim currently works out of her Salem, MA home studio with her husband, cat, and reluctant “studio assistant” pup. She teaches classes and workshops at The Clay School in Lynn, Massachusetts.
This is Kim’s 11th year participating in Open Studios, and her 10th as part of the planning team.

Kyle focuses on creating simple forms, letting the color and texture of the pinched clay serve as decoration.
The quiet, muted colors are achieved by kneading dye directly into the clay itself and are selected to evoke a sense of calm and tranquility.
Kyle’s work is created in porcelain and fired to cone 7 in an electric kiln.

In this crazy world where we are surrounded by all kinds of chaos, I use the influence of living near the ocean to try and create an environment that is calm and peaceful. To me, there is something magical and even spiritual that happens in the space where the sky meets the water. Is it liquid, or solid, or something else?
The intention of my painting is to portray a sense of depth by layering washes of color that can take you to a place that, although abstract, looks and feels like water or sky that you can swim or float through as you fall into peaceful contemplation, meditation or reflection.

Bobbie Bush is a professional portrait artist specializing in fine photographic portraits and custom painted portrait commissions.
As her personal and professional work has evolved, Bobbie has developed a unique mixed media process that pushes the boundaries of what was once a digitally-captured image into the realm of fine art. Her tools now include both the modern and the traditional, combining hand-applied electronic brushwork with topical layers of oil paints and embellishments, applied by brush and palette knife.
Each commission begins with a photographic reference image, whether is is a client-supplied photograph or an image captured at the studio.
With over 25 years of experience, Bobbie has helped her clients express a deep love of family through painted portrait art by combining photography + painting together in a creative way to create the painting they always wanted.
Just imagine having your most cherished memory transformed into a painted work of art, whether it is celebrating a child, memorializing a parent, commemorating a pet or honoring a friend. Portrait paintings in the home remind us that we are loved and valued.
This is Bobbie's fourth year participating in the Lydia Pinkham Open Studios, located in unit 112 on the first floor.

I am a sculptural hand builder, but I do periodically supplement my work with wheel thrown aspects. I’ve always loved studying the natural biologies as well as the mythical, and they mesh in my ceramic sculptures. Each of my creatures are unique friends I make by hand. I try to capture these creatures in a snapshot of a moment, poised in what they do. Each piece is unique, and only one is made unless specifically requested.

I am a serial maker, and while new to the world of pottery, working with clay felt very familiar from the start. It taps into all the skills I've learned from baking, knitting, embroidery, and countless other crafty pursuits. Even that brief, inexplicable period making faux stained glass using acrylic paint.
I create wheel-thrown and hand-built functional pottery and am still in search of the Perfect Mug Handle. As with all other artistic endeavors, my designs are inspired by vintage graphic design, textiles, and housewares with an eye towards fine details and bright colors.

@eeya_ceramics
Vicky Blanco is the potter behind EEYA Ceramics. She enjoys creating functional hand-made pieces that communicate warmth, strength and connection. Her work utilizes red clay and porcelain slip, and carved patterned surfaces that reference nature.
Vicky grew up in Bolivia. Surrounded by mountains, diverse culture, nature and a close family. She developed a love for artistic expression at an early age. She holds a bachelor’s degree in graphic design, and spent many years working on branding, interaction and information design projects. In early 2019 she started classes at The Clay School and immediately fell in love with this medium and has since focused her creative energy on clay.
Vicky crafts meaningful pieces – finding a connection with her roots in design, and exploring form and the creation of patterns on the clay surface. She believes in the power of living a life surrounded by beauty and nature. She values the sense of human touch and the energy to pass it onto others with each piece. EEYA is the phonetic spelling of “IYA”, a Guarani dialect word that refers to the energy found in things made from the earth. "EEYA" is created with new pottery and passed on to each owner as new "EEYA".
Vicky finds great joy in creating pots and wishes to share that joy with those who use them. Today she lives in Lynnfield with her family and is a happy maker.

I am part of a family of artists. I grew up with my great grandparents and grandparents always working on paintings. I am the only potter in the family, but I love adding hand painted elements of nature to my pieces. I took my first ceramics class as an undergraduate student in 2013 and fell in love with the medium. The majority of my work is wheel thrown functional pieces that have hand carved or hand built elements.
I am currently a PhD student in Marine Biology, and I use ceramics as an outlet to express my creative inspiration and expression of the natural world. In 2022, I joined The Clay School after I moved to Massachusetts for grad school. This is my second time participating in the Lydia Pinkham Open Studios event. I love attending and participating in this event so that I can connect with the community and other artists.

The ritual of morning coffee, enjoyed peacefully alone in the quiet of the morning. Boisterous celebrations over wine and small snacks. The mutual gratitude when thanking your host with a gift and an embrace. The shared excitement when warming a new home. These are the moments I create for.
I fell in love with making pots in the summer of 2011, while surrounded by red rocks and foothills in Boulder, CO. Although my making ebbs and flows with different seasons of life, it is my passion and true delight. I love early mornings in the studio.
I take inspiration from nature. I am drawn to simple textures, full bodied forms, rusty reds and exploring the depth and nuances of neutrals.

Come Together Over Me
A slab of cherry wood, 20” x 18” x 3” thick from a friend’s childhood farm sat in my studio for about 5 years, waiting for its moment. After I chipped away the rough and dirty surfaces with a mallet and chisel, long streaks of pink and green grain and dark red branch markings became obvious. It reminded me of the Grand Canyon. My only concern at that moment was not to mess it up.
My work is informed by many sources- the color and density of logs and tree branches, the shapes of found objects, and their history and whether they have been broken or not. Added to this palette of influences are my thoughts and emotions which consciously and unconsciously roam around my studio where my wood is stacked on shelves like volumes in a library, next to my tools hanging on other racks, metal gouges of various curvature and finally pieces of unfinished sculptures waiting to be resolved into an idea.
For the last few years themes of the damaged environment and the unrecognized people who lived before us have begun to be seen and appreciated in our society. My piece of sculpture, “ Canyon Rim”, that has emerged from the gorgeous cherry slab is a memorial piece and a celebratory piece about this moment as we look over that canyon of history.

Paul’s unique sense of space, shape, color and light has led him through many creative disciplines throughout his art and business career. His work is influenced by forms and structures in architectural styles, in nature’s organic shapes and in the illusion that light plays on one’s vision. Inspiration for surface designs comes from nature’s patterns. When studied from different viewpoints, his work offers a shifting understanding of form, volume, and symmetry. Redefining a shape or creating inventive interpretations, he utilizes the familiar to present the unexpected.
As a graduate of the School at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston and Tufts University, Paul continued his studies as a 5th year graduate student at the MFA where he was awarded a Traveling Fellowship to study abroad. Six of his pieces were retained by the MFA for their permanent collection. Those pieces and others were part of a Traveling Fellowship Show at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
As a creative & design director for several advertising agencies, i.e. Arnold Worldwide, Ingalls Associates & Ciavarra Design Inc, Paul also has been an Adjunct Professor, teaching design & concept at the School at the Museum of Fine Arts at Tufts and Massachusetts College of Art. Throughout his career he has received numerous creative awards in Boston & New York Art Directors Shows and locally.
He has been the recipient for outstanding work in Printmaking, Sculpture and Ceramics at the Marblehead Arts Festival. He also is an artist in residence at The Clay School in Lynn, Ma.

As an artist, I have always been captivated by the world around me, viewing life through the lens of creativity and artistry. It all began in 6th grade when I received my first camera, igniting a lifelong passion for photography. Through the lens, I discovered the beauty in the everyday and the extraordinary in the ordinary.
During my high school years, I embraced the opportunity to explore various artistic mediums. This exploration revealed to me that my artistic passions extended far beyond the realm of photography. I found myself drawn to different forms of expression, constantly seeking new ways to capture and interpret the world.
What’s particularly unique about my approach to art is that I firmly believe one doesn’t need a significant budget to create meaningful and impactful artwork. I utilize discarded materials, secondhand finds, and inexpensive items to craft my pieces. Not only does this method challenge the notion that art requires “top brands”, but it also aligns with my commitment to environmental sustainability. By repurposing what others might consider trash or disregarded, I’m able to contribute to a more eco-friendly art practice.
Through my work, I strive to challenge conventional perceptions, encouraging viewers to see the world through an artistic lens. I aim to evoke emotions, provoke thought, and inspire others to embrace their own creative potential, but most of all HAVE FUN. With each stroke, each photograph, and each installation, I invite audiences to join me in discovering the inherent beauty and artistry that resides in our surroundings.
Art is not limited to galleries and museums; it is a dynamic and ever-present force that surrounds us. Through my artistic journey, I continue to explore, experiment, and push boundaries, seeking to capture the essence of life’s intricate tapestry and share it with the world. Celebrating the extraordinary artistry that exists within the ordinary.

After getting a Bachelor’s Degree in Human Services, I pursued a lifelong dream and attained an MFA in Creative writing. Since graduating in 2015 I have gone on to participate in numerous prestigious workshops and residencies including traveling to Oxford University. My passion for writing and artistic expression found its way to the canvas where I have blossomed and delighted many with my colorful and dynamic signature pieces. Being a self-taught artist, I know the importance of embracing my local artist community. I have been offered tremendous encouragement and support, artists and entrepreneurs have welcomed me, and I am forever grateful.
I enjoy using my art in many forms including T-shirts and notecards. My notecards can be found at “All That Matters Antiques” in Belmont, MA

Kathleen Speranza has explored many subjects in her more than 30 years of painting and teaching, but roses are her current obsession. During her distinguished academic career, she taught painting and drawing for all college levels. She was on the faculty of the Rhode Island School of Design for the past several years.
Her paintings explore the visual language of space, light, color, and form as it relates to specific subjects from nature. The most recent paintings investigate the poetic potential of botanical life. Her works relating to garden roses, with their extreme subtlety of color and structure, are perhaps her best-known images.
Her works appear in public and private collections in the U.S. and the U.K. Speranza holds a BFA from Boston University and an MFA from Yale. Her work can be seen on Facebook and Instagram. She lives and works in Lynn, Massachusetts, with her husband, Parker Heath.

My work is grounded in the traditional pottery of the American Northeast and draws influence from Japanese making techniques that focus on a meditative commitment to the process and a celebration of the inherent imperfections of handmade wares. I am grateful for the boundaries that function and tradition place on my work. As such, I aim to make pots that evoke a sense of history, yet are born entirely of the present.
Pottery is the intersection of art and craft - the perfect combination of form and function - which makes it an ideal way to add a bit of art into our hectic, modern lives. The way a handle is marked by the maker's fingers, the slight imperfections of a rim, glaze breaking over an altered surface - all of it is entirely unique to that piece. This can make something as humble as a simple mug into a piece of art. As such, my hope is that my pots will be used often, and not treated preciously. That their use becomes an opportunity for connection, appreciation, and contemplation.
