Aletha Soule started her pottery business in 1984 with the desire to create objects that are beautiful, simple, and can be used every day. She believes we should use thoughtfully designed objects in our daily life. When these objects resonate with us, we slow down, take a conscious breath and appreciate the moment. The inspiration for her work often comes from the landscape around her. Whether at home or traveling, she is drawn to visual texture and subtle surfaces - the texture of a mango's skin, water's play over grass and rock as it works its way to the beach, or gritty street graffiti which jumps right off the wall. She tries to capture the essence of these experiences in each piece.
