Colorful Clay Things?  YEP!
Functional(ish) Art?  OFTEN!
Made with Love?  ALWAYS!
Every piece is small-batch and handmade - just me, my two hands, and a baby kiln named Skuttlebutt* doing our best to turn mud into magic!
​*Yes, my kiln has a name. She's a Skutt brand—tiny, temperamental, and full of personality. Like me, but way hotter.

Hi, I’m Kerri Painter — yes, that’s really my name.
Fitting, right? My work is painterly, a little graffiti-ish, richly textured, and unapologetically whimsical. I’m inspired by wildflowers, messy sketchbooks, murals, and magical little moments.

Each piece is crafted slowly and thoughtfully—often with music playing way too loud or a comfort-show rerun in the background. I specialize in one-of-a-kind ceramic mugs and tumblers, because let’s be real—coffee tastes better from a cool cup. But you’ll also find spoon rests, catch-all dishes, vases, and other functional art pieces, all made to add a little joy (and maybe a little sass) to your everyday life.

Every collection is a mix of seasonal vibes, nerdy nostalgia, and pure artistic impulse. So whether you’re here for the texture, the colors, or just because you need a new favorite mug — welcome to The Muddy Canvas, where pottery is fun, art is for everyone, and perfection is totally overrated.
