Jenise McCardell received an Associate Degree in Graphics at Key West Community College and a BFA in Ceramics at the University of Florida. She opened her clay business in 1980 in the New Orleans French Quarter.
Her Clay Creations are handmade sculptures primarily of New Orleans and the Gulf Coast. The pieces are sculpted from white clay, hand painted and fired twice in a high temperature kiln. Countless unique pieces from over 1,000 different Clay Creations designs have been formed over the years. They include homes, churches, schools and businesses- some of which “just ain’t dere no mo!”
