Bio
My name is Katie Elkins.
I taught myself to sew at the age of five. I have been working in clay since the age of 7. Since then I have been obsessed with these two media.
I attended Guilford College, graduating with a BFA in Ceramic Art. At Guilford, I studied with my instructor Charlie Tefft. I studied abroad three times during my education – twice in Germany and once in Japan. It was in Japan, where I studied with my sensei Yoshio Inomata, that I decided to focus on ceramics.
I apprenticed at Turtle Island Pottery in Old Fort, NC after graduation, helped build the Yancey County Tile initiative from the ground up, created and managed a successful art and craft fair, taught dressmaking on Capitol Hill, volunteered and showed a piece at the Smithsonian, and had many other fine adventures.
