Five Stars for Amanda Wright Pottery! I was vising the Napa Valley , St. Helena, and Calistoga area on vacation and decided to stop off at the St. Helena Farmer's Market. While walking around, I saw a table full of absolutely stunning pottery and ceramics. I learned that the artist, Amanda Wright, works out of her garage and sells her art masterpieces not only at the farmer's market, but also at several very prestigious places in the Bay Area. Her work is exquisite, unique, and full of detail. I just had to buy a piece to showcase in my office. Amanda Wright's addiction to pottery followed a fashion design career which included costume design for TV and movies. She left Southern California with her husband and three children to live a slower paced lifestyle in Northern California's beautiful wine country, Napa Valley. The common thread in Amanda Wright's pottery is simplicity and balance. Each of the traditional forms is charged with a modern spirit. The utilitarian art invites you to use each piece in daily life. I love it how she is able to tie together her experience in fashion design with pottery. Her art is perfect for home, office, and winery tasting room decorations. Her pieces are certainly masterpieces and will be the topic of many discussions in the home and office.
