Rose Quintana comes from Barcelona and has been a potter for 20 years. She has studied at both the School of Arts in Barcelona, Spain, and the Florida Atlantic University in Boca Raton. Her works primarily use stoneware clay. She custom mixes glazes of many colors and usually employs techniques of both wheelthrowing and handbuilding in the creation of her pieces. Her signature element, used frequently, is a beautiful, organic, winding, pulled handle. She is also creating a new line of mosaics with themes drawn from landscapes and inspired by nature. Utilizing both hand-made tiles and hand sculpted pieces that are enhanced with bright glazes the scenes create a narrative that evokes feelings, desires, memories and dreams
Currently Rose is producing pieces and teaching full time at Clayworks, where she is the owner, in Miami Beach.
