Clay and the Creative Process
Welcome to the online home of hand made ceramics and graphic art by Jan Helm.
Clay is a uniquely plastic medium. Everyday vessels can be transformed through creativity. My work is inspired by nature, spiritual, and cultural influences. The artwork evolves and emerges as I engage in each stage of production. Art has a life of its own, and I allow it to flow through me. Please use the contact page to reach me
