Rai Ceramics

Nanaimo,  BC  

Rai is a potter with a deep passion for creating functional art pieces that make people smile. Rai is a kindergarten teacher by day and a potter by night! She loves to create characters on her ceramic pieces that are inspired by the whimsical figures she sees in the children's books she reads to her students as well as the books she grew up with. It is a constant source of joy to make wares that can be used in daily life and seeing people giggle as they interact with the goofy, nostalgic and endearing creations. Her work is intended to make everyday living a little more playful!
