Linda St. Marie

Linda began working with clay at UCSB a very long time ago, and continued at UCSD with Rhoda Lopez. She has her own studio, although finding time to create has been a problem as she teaches Fine Arts at Feaster/Edison Elementary School full time to students in grades K-6.

Linda enjoys the peace found in working with clay and seeing a lump of clay turn into a finished object. She sees the same thing with a piece of fabric that turns into a folk art doll. She sees this change happen in her art students that she teaches every day.

Linda hopes through her work in ceramics to bring some humor into a person's life, a smile to their face and, perhaps, some lasting enjoyment.
