Monica Adamo first began working with clay while attending college in the United States.   After joining an introductory pottery class, she was immediately hooked by the creative potential of clay and continued to study pottery after returning home to the Toronto area.   She then spent almost 2 years traveling and teaching English in Japan and Peru, joining pottery studios in both of these countries to further develop her work with clay.  Monica currently lives in the Kitchener area and is a member of both the Waterloo and Hamilton Potters’ Guilds.

Monica works equally on the potter’s wheel and with various handbuilding techniques.  She focuses mainly on the functional uses of pottery and incorporates texture and pattern into much of her work.   She does this by using textured cloth and paper, leaves and shells, and with a large collection of stamps including those she makes from clay herself.  Her work is inspired by the nature she sees around her and the landscapes she had the pleasure of exploring in her travels. 

Monica works with both stoneware and porcelain clay bodies.  For further information she can be contacted at creationsbymonica@rogers.com.

Please Note: For Non-Members by successfully completing the beginner's wheel and handbuilding classes you will be eligible to becoming a full member of the Waterloo Potters' Workshop.  If you are an experienced potter then contacting a member of board and showing your work can also qualify you for joining the workshop, if room is available.  Visit the About Us page to get contact details for the workshop.
