Ep#11 Daniel Dooreck - On turning mud into really nice ceramics, work life balance and wild dreams
Note sull'episodio
In today’s episode, I chat with Daniel Dooreck from Danny’s Mudshop, a potter currently living in sunny LA. If you’re into pottery and ceramics, you’ve probably seen Danny’s work on social media - his hand thrown creations are carved with pictures of cowboy boots, snakes and other desert inspired images. In our chat, we talked about Danny’s journey from working in the wine and food industry to discovery pottery and going full time with his mud shop. We talked about his creative process, why it’s hard to scale and how terrifiying shipping his work can be. I asked him what the most rewarding parts of running his business are and if it’s hard for him to find a good balance between working hard and taking time off. I hope you enjoy our chat and find yourself wanting to move to LA and become a potter too! (I know I did).
