Faye began
her teaching career in her
home state of North Carolina
in 1986, where she taught
k-12 Art in the public
schools for eight years,
focusing on middle school.
 While
teaching during the day she
continued her ceramics
education in traditional
southern forms with
respected local Potter Bob
Armfield in the evenings.
Since moving to Seattle,
Faye has taught art/pottery
through artist-in-residence
programs with many local
schools and through various
community centers including
Seward Park Art Studio, the
Bellevue Art Museum, the
Greenlake Community Center,
and the Seattle Children’s
Museum and Kirkland Arts
Center. She opened her home
studio in Sept. 2002 after
the birth of her first
child.
Faye is a talented artist
and potter. Her works
demonstrate all of the
possibility of her vibrant
personality- they come to
life in a wonderful
diversity of forms that
demonstrate her skill,
humor, and unique
perspective.
Faye has
a warm friendly personality,
and supportive encouraging
style that compliments a
solid core of teaching
experience in many types of
arts and crafts to all ages
and abilities.
