From the studio

Design-conscious Tucson homeowners commissioning $5–15k custom installations, plus weekend hobbyists and gift-buyers who take in-studio classes or buy finished pieces at markets and online.

Every commission is a partnership. Material choices, palette pulled from the desert that surrounds the wall it will live on, repair philosophy — all worked out before any grout sets. Some pieces come together in weeks; some take a season. The work asks for patience and rewards it.
