Portrait of Melissa Kniceley firing ground hog kiln by artist, Dianne Garner.
Melissa Kniceley Art Portfolio
I am a potter with over 20 years of experience, dedicated to the craft of traditional wood-fired pottery. I teach pottery lessons at my studio and fire my creations in a groundhog kiln- a process that honors time, flame, and tradition. I create my own glazes, blending technique and artistry to produce both pieces that reflect both history and my unique vision. I am currently expanding my artistic journey by taking classes at Cleveland Community College, where I am learning drawing and exploring new dinemsions of 3D art. This experience is deepening my understanding of form, design, and creative expression, enriching my work as a potter.
