Jennie Lanners 

"I started my work with clay at the Edina Art Center when I was eleven. As a teenager I spent many hours in the studio getting to know clay. I went to the University of Minnesota where I met my husband Joe in the ceramics program. We established a home studio in the Nokomis area of Minneapolis. I use a mid range stoneware clay and paint with various slips and under glazes before carving. I fire to cone six in an electric kiln. My designs and motifs are simple and clean. I draw my inspiration from textiles, historical ceramics and our natural world."

Jennie teaches pottery for all skill levels at Edina Art Center.
