Isaih Porter

Isaih Porter is an artist and potter from Southern California. After developing an obsession with wheel-throwing in a high school ceramics class, Isaih attended Connecticut College to earn a bachelor’s degree in art and computer science. While at college, Isaih was focused on improving his throwing techniques and experimenting with different mid-temperature clay and glaze recipes — he was also a teacher's assistant in various ceramics courses covering mold-making and throwing basics.

Isaih has worked at the AMOCA Ceramics Studio in Pomona, California, where he helped make clay, load and fire kilns, give private lessons, package artwork, paint walls, build shelves, and more. Now, Isaih teaches wheel-throwing at Clay Studio Santa Barbara.

In the past few years, Isaih has created a small business selling his own wares, teaching others, working as a production potter for other ceramic artists, and he's even converted an old electric kiln to run on propane in his front yard.
