Marsha Hoggan & Jennifer James
We’re always thrilled to welcome local pottery and mixed media artists Marsha Hoggan and Jennifer James to our Pop-Up space to showcase their incredible creations.
Marsha Hoggan
Marsha has been creating beautiful pottery since 2005 and now works from her own studio. Her functional pieces are primarily made from porcelain, with one of her more recent passions being black porcelain — a stunning material that beautifully complements her underglaze designs. Another of Marsha’s creative pursuits is Raku pottery; in 2024, she even built her own Raku kiln. The Orca theme appears throughout much of Marsha’s work, a fitting tribute to the spirit and beauty of the West Coast.
Jennifer James
Jennifer is a multi-textural artist whose creative journey began as soon as she could hold a crayon. She has been crafting pottery since the age of 13, exploring a variety of hand-building techniques and sculptural forms. Deeply inspired by the spiritual essence of nature, Jennifer infuses her work with this connection, creating pieces that are both expressive and meaningful. Her collection features nature-inspired Raku pottery and sculptures — including mythical Sprites, sculpted flowers with crystal centers, owls, and butterflies. She also creates a stunning range of stoneware mugs and brooches, each piece reflecting her love of texture, form, and the natural world.
