Tanya Boyd was born on the Mornington Peninsula in 1973. Living close to the water established her love of the outdoors and nature. After meeting her husband in the early 90’s, he introduced her to bird watching and the country town of Bright in the Victorian High Country.
Throughout the years nature and the Victorian High Country has heavily influenced Tanya’s ceramic practice. In 2009 Tanya studied at Chisholm Tafe in Dandenong, Victoria for her Diploma of Ceramic Design.
While there, Tanya discovered her creative voice under the guidance of her tutor Judith Roberts. Through her studies, she was introduced to Greyson Perry's and Gerry Wedd's illustrative works and the William Morris quote.
“Have nothing in your house that you do not know to be useful, or believe to be beautiful.” This quote has been the inspiration of many of Tanya’s pieces which have been sold nationally and internationally.
We are a Paint Your Own Pottery Studio located in the heart of Cleveland on Middle Street. Colour My Pot is a family owned and operated business that caters to kids and adults alike.
Making (throwing) pots on the pottery wheel is a bit of a process its a good idea to book at least 2 wheel classes * they don't have to be consecutive.
If you just want to have a try and are not ready for our short-term classes, then our taster classes are best for you! Within two hours you will learn the skills of basic wheel throwing and make two works on the wheels.
The class gives you the chance to experience the thrill and fun of the wheel. You will be guided by our professional pottery teachers, where you'll get muddy, creative and have a bit fun. Come on your own or with a friend this is an open, friendly environment.
3 days of making (hand building) and 1 day of glazing.
