Professional Membership

Cathy Rees has always had her hands in the mud. Whether in the garden or in the clay studio. She has studied ecology and has worked in parks, forests and in the landscaping business for most of her adult life. Her interest in pottery developed along with her interest in the tangled web of life, particularly the botanical world.

She has attended numerous workshops and short courses in various aspects of pottery making wherever her travels have taken her. She is currently a member of the Brooklin Pottery Coop, a communal clay studio, where she draws inspiration from the native flora that inhabits the coast of Maine and finds connections and patterns in its beauty.
