Welcome!
Welcome to the J. Sheiman Ceramics webpage! I took my first clay class (Clay 1) at WHS, and started throwing November of 2009, and my love for the art only got stronger. I have been working with clay, on and off the wheel, ever since. My intent is to share my work with others, and to create and inspire others. My work is for sale, and is also for critique... I'm only an amateur! Comments are welcome as well!
Enjoy,
Johnathan
