Brent Heerspink and Julie Porter, co-owners of Heerspink and Porter
Pottery, work together at their home and studio located just north of
the Les Cheneaux Islands Area in the Eastern Upper Peninsula of
Michigan. They make a wide range of stoneware pottery using ash based
glazes made in part with local raw materials. Their work has been shown
at national level art fairs and in galleries across the country and is
in collections in the United States, Europe, China and Japan. They have
taught several workshops focusing on throwing, glazing and brushwork
techniques as well as building and firing wood fired kilns.
