Alice Stewart is a ceramic artist based in Mill Valley, California, living between the redwood forests, the Pacific Coast, and San Francisco Bay. The forest, fog, and creatures of the natural world inform her work. Her background in painting continues to shape her approach, influencing how she considers surface, texture, and composition in clay.

Working primarily in stoneware, Alice specializes in traditional coiling techniques—an ancient hand-building method that predates the potter’s wheel. Favoring minimal tools, she prioritizes a direct, tactile relationship with clay, incorporating carving and sculptural elements to create work that is both grounded and expressive.

Her pieces convey emotion and personality, capturing the energy and spirit of the natural world she calls home.
