My love for Porcelain has grown exponentially. Antoinette presents her workshops with in-depth knowledge, understanding and love of porcelain. I thank Antoinette for sharing this in the 5 day workshop I attended in Simon's Town, South Africa.

I did a hands-on porcelain workshop with Antoinette and she was amazing. Really inspiring to get to see how she creates her art and to learn her techniques!

A wonderful teacher! After this workshop I'm no longer intimidated by the Porcelain Diva ... so much knowledge and experience (and humour) was shared. Having on open door to get assistance going forward is another huge benefit. I learnt so much.

I have wanted to throw porcelain for a long time, but found it very difficult. Antoinette's class made it possible for me to not only throw porcelain, but to do so with confidence! She is an inspiring teacher, very knowledgeable, and shares that knowledge generously. I have taken two online classes, (she is very quick to respond to questions) with personal attention that makes all the difference. I was also priviledged to take a week long class in her home studio, and enjoyed it immensely; not only for the wealth of information, but she is a very welcoming, encouraging teacher. She has helped me to see and understand art differently, not only as a potter, but as an artist. I plan to return to her site for another class as soon as I am able.

There is no better teacher than Antoinette to learn how to work with and understand Porcelain. She is the Master of the Diva Porcelain. I recently took a week-long workshop with her and left super filled with information and can't wait to put it all into action. She is a teacher that is very generous with her knowledge and sincerely wants you to succeed. She also offers online classes which I have also taken. They are equally filled with great information to help you learn the correct way to work with Porcelain.

I have nothing but amazing things to say about Antoinette. She is an extremely skilled and knowledgeable potter. Not only that, but she is able to teach her skills in an easy to understand way, which is not an easy task. I took classes with Antoinette for 3 months and it was the best decision I could have made. Antoinette and her husband Koos took me in as if I was their own family and made me feel so welcomed in Mississippi. I highly recommend taking any class that Antoinette teaches. You will not regret it.

I have known this amazing pottery for over 20 years. Traveled to Europe with her for workshops and she has mentored me for my whole career. Her boundless energy and knowledge is shared freely with all levels of potters. Her online classes are so detailed, it feels like you are right there beside her. Her translucent porcelain is amazing. Here are some pictures of student work at La Meridiana workshop in Italy and Lehmuus sun Switzerland.

I was fortunate enough to take Antoinette’s first online class in Working with Porcelain as well as an in person workshop where she demonstrated her process. I can’t say enough about her skills and her teaching methods! She explains things well and though I work mainly in stoneware these days I use so many if her techniques. I now trim my pots both inside and out and am able to produce lovely thin works and I’ve mastered the pinch pot which I use in my sculptural forms! I highly recommend her classes!
