Nan Patmont is a functional ceramic artist specializing in creating beautiful, useful pottery designed to enrich everyday life. She honed her craft through community ceramic courses and advanced her skills during the 2017 Fall Ceramic Concentration Workshop at the Penland School of Crafts.
Nan draws inspiration from the joy of cooking, baking, and dining, crafting handmade pieces that seamlessly blend form and function. Working primarily with mid-range stoneware, her techniques include both wheel-throwing and hand-building, resulting in pieces that are as practical as they are elegant.
Her work has been showcased in the Mostly Madrid Gallery and is currently featured in the Artistic License Gallery in Eldorado at Santa Fe. She regularly participates in events such as the Contemporary Clay Fair in Santa Fe and the Eldorado Studio Tour, sharing her passion for ceramics with a wider audience.
When she’s not in her studio, Nan loves to cook, bake, and entertain—activities that inspire her timeless, functional designs.
