The Artist

Hello! I’m Emily, the heart and hands behind E Stark Ceramics. Each piece you see here is thoughtfully crafted by me in my home studio.
My creative journey began as a child with crayons and paper in hand, watching my aunt, a watercolor artist, bring vivid visions to life. My passion for clay first sparked in high school, where I fell in love with ceramics. After four fulfilling years living in the art room, I continued to explore this love at Penn State, earning my B.F.A. with an emphasis in ceramics, where I focused on creating functional pottery. -
My life took an unexpected detour as I followed my passion for justice to law school, spending the next 15 years in Montana. Along the way, I kept my creative spirit alive through quilting, weaving art and storytelling together one stitch at a time.
Now that I'm back in Pennsylvania, I'm back to playing with clay, creating work that’s inspired by my 20-year journey of wandering the world. My hope is that these pieces spark as much joy in your home as they do in my hands!
