in life & art.

We’ve been making ceramics together since 1991. Dan shapes every form by hand, and I bring each one to life with illustration and underglaze. No two pieces ever leave our San Miguel studio looking the same—not even ones from the same edition. We sell our work throughout the United States, Canada, and Mexico.

Six collections

From the studio shelves.

Over the years our work has grown into a wonderfully varied collection—we make all sorts of different pieces. Please enjoy exploring them.

The studio

Two people, one table,
thirty-four years.

We met as students in Toronto in 1991 and moved the studio to San Miguel de Allende in 2001. Dan throws and slip-casts the forms; Nisha hand-paints every piece. Most weeks the room smells of clay and oranges.
