Self Portrait Shot on Minolta x700 Black and White Film 2017

Hi, I'm Jacquery Valentine!

I am the lead artist behind Valentine Studio. What drew me to pottery is clays willingness to be transformed. As a transgender individual I think the idea of being able to sculpt a lump of earth into any desired form rather romantic. There are many ways I can relate having physically transformed myself to the artistic discipline of forming clay. I work predominantly in functional pottery with a heavy emphasis on form. I find it satisfying to create objects that are both beautiful and useful. My company provides a range of high-quality functional art to the community. We vend locally in Minnesota and online at ValentineStudio.art .

In addition to my work in pottery I have a range of other skills such as 3D modeling and graphic design and I am available for commission work. To inquire about rates please visit my contact page.
