Ryan Catalano Ceramics

This was my first time constructing a piece like this, and I found it quite an exciting challenge! From creating the knob to trimming the lid and shaping the form, I enjoyed every step. Although this is probably one of the largest pieces I've thrown, I plan to go even bigger next time 💪.

Thank you those are so old 😓. I think they are from my sophomore year 🤔

A close frien While I struggle to appreciate my past work, I recognize the value of those memories in showing my growth. Since mugs are my favorite to create, I want to share my journey from the beginning to where I am now.

Just wanted to capture this moment in time with these beautiful tulips 🌷. This was my first time making an object like this, and I love how it turned out!!! Can't wait to improve and make it even more extravagant next time!!!! Hope you enjoy.

I felt that springtime tulips would be the perfect choice for this piece. I ended up visiting three different stores to find the perfect tulips, and I believe the final result was well worth the effort. I hope you enjoy this floral arrangement and the flower brick.

Blue floral Ice cream bowls 🍨💙

I would say I'm ready for ice cream season to begin, but isn’t it always ice cream season?

Through my functional pieces, I aspire to craft works that serve not only a practical purpose but also bring joy and comfort to those who interact with them.

Hey everyone, wishing you an amazing week!!! I've been playing around with different pitcher designs. I'm hoping this chicken pitcher will be great for sharing sweet tea.

Trying to work on a new chicken design 🐓. I just think they are such silly but beautiful birds. I think these tumblers will be perfect for sweet tea.

Threw some bowls today 💪.
Excited to get these trimmed then decorated. Think I’m going to continue on with my previous bowl designs.

Thank you so much that is so kind of you ❤️😊

I really like yours as well :) I like all the colors and flower patterns

Thank you hope you are doing lovely today :) I just looked at your work and its so amazing I love all your colors you are using 😄❤️

That would be amazing id love to stop by if I can find out where I'm going. This will be my second conference. The one in Richmond was so large I felt myself getting a little lost.

I am planning on it! Just bought my ticket a few days ago just gotta figure out when go get my plane ticket. Are you going to try and go ?

Your forms and surface design are just so amazing! 🙌

Thank you! I think I'm in that part of my career where I'm just playing around and trying to discover what works best with my forms and surface design 🤔 very exciting but frustrating times for sure 😄. I got to pick up and look at one of your mugs last NCECA for the mug fundraiser.

I love your work Adam! Its so wonderful. I like the raccoons and bears !

Here is a recent blue frog Plate I made which was a piece for my senior exhibitition 🐸.

I hope to find my way into the ceramic community and find a sense of belonging ❤️.
