About
My name is Ellen Pencil
Ellen Pencil is a ceramic artist based in Cape Town, South Africa. She integrates the beautiful natural surrounding into her art and teaches beginners and experienced potters on the wheel. Her unique approach of combining mindfulness and coaching methods into the creative process lets her students not only shape ceramics vessels into their most beautiful form, but also their mindsets. Ellen incorporates ancient Japanese pottery techniques into her teaching, which she learned during her ceramics studies in Mashiko, Japan. She was a resident ceramicist in a Hamburg based Studio in Germany, before she moved to Cape Town to learn under the award-winning potter Anthony Shapiro.
Ellen left her decade-long career in the Tech industry working for Google and Spotify behind, to embrace her passion full-time: Ceramics. She is a Certified Integral Coach and incorporates methods to integrate mind, body and heart through clay.
