- Meet Wyatt -

Raised in the thriving artist community of Ojai, CA, Wyatt Amend’s ceramic work revolves around the world of glass. By striving for fine and delicate Venetian forms, Wyatt has developed a multitude of techniques which allow him to emulate glass goblets and drinking vessels. Working more as a woodworker does on a lathe, he carves down a larger form to create his interpretations of ancient blown glass. After graduating from Sonoma State University in 2012, Wyatt attended residencies at the Beatrice Woods Center for the Arts in 2013, Haystack Mountain School of Crafts in 2014, took multiple classes and internships at Pilchuck Glass School 2011-15 and assisted Greg Daly in his 2015 summer workshop, “Color and Form” at the Penland School of Crafts, which led to a three month residency with Daly at the Australian National University in Canberra, AUS in 2016.

After many fruitful years in Ojai, he moved to Northern California in 2022. He is currently a Production Potter for FLM Ceramics at Petaluma Pottery.

Wyatt currently lives in Petaluma, California. You will often find him in his home studio, working away with his dog Siggy at his feet.
