Welcome to my new website.
I’m Sarah, designer and maker of all the pieces you’ll find on this site. I’m mammy to 2 crazy boys and wife to a hairy musician. I do a bit of teaching and in my spare time do a bit of scouting.
So here it is my first blog post on my brand new website. It’s like writing on the crisp clean pages of a brand new notebook – scary.
So here you will see a bit of how I make it:
And a bit about how I use them:
And plenty of chat about my loves in life which influence me.
Sarah McKenna has been developing her unique handmade Irish pottery at Bridge Street Studios since 1999. Before returning to Dundalk she studied Ceramics at Duncan of Jordonstone College of Art & Design, the University of Dundee, Scotland where she gained a Bachelor of Ceramic Design.
Sarah’s work has always been engaged in the process and the early studio work was concerned with smoke firing and raku firing sculptural vessel forms. In 2006 Sarah started producing a range of quirky customisable ceramics giftware which is the beginning of what you can purchase today. Read more here.
