Sharon DiGennaro - Wildflower Pottery - My name is Sharon DiGennaro. I am a potter. My business name “Wildflower” was chosen for my love of flowers. I was knee high to a grasshopper when I first dove into the field next door to pluck dandelions for my mother. She indeed sees me as a Wild flower, free and vibrant.

I have had my hands in clay for over twenty four years now, seventeen of them as a functional potter. “If you were not a functional potter, what would you be?” you ask. Why a “dysfunctional” potter of course! And at the age of forty five that is what I have become. I cannot be trusted to color within the lines. I know I “should” be concerned with trends, orders, taxes, recessions, bookkeeping, retirement funds, insurance, marketing and such, and yet I keep finding myself in the studio squashing clay this way and that. I am in awe of the creators work thru my hands. I guess I could apply that same “God” energy to my taxes and perhaps in the end I would have a retirement fund! I am noticing my remorse is not what it used to be either! I rarely have a “cohesive” body of work anymore. Instead, I am gifted with a plethora of “creative flow” if you will. And as luck would have it most of my pieces turn out to have a “functionability” after all.

Forget rhyme or reason. Colors, movement, shapes are owned by no other than my own living spirit. It is my greatest joy to offer my work out to the world in all its' eclectic glory. I believe one should always share their passion.

Sincerely, Sharon DiGennaro
