about

jenifer lake's passion for clay started in middle school when she had access to her first ceramic studio class & fell in deep with the potters wheel & handbuilding.  this has continued off & on for just shy of 4 decades now.  she's always learning new things & ways to expand on her clay adoration & repertoire & furthering her knowledge from her bfa she earned in 1997.  jenifer has been making handmade items & art & selling in shops & fairs since 2004; formerly under the name sprout studio. 

jenifer has been teaching in various settings for over 25 years. she’s taught at camps, workshops, studios, conferences, & in many classrooms to ages 5 years old to 70+. 

 she currently is a kindergarten through 8th grade visual arts teacher in a private french catholic school downtown san francisco & is in her 23rd year there.

even though she has a southern heart & hails from the southeast & eastern seaboard originally, she feels lucky to call san francisco her home & considers california her forever spot.  the only other places she'd rather be is traveling, floating in a pool, camping in the desert in her vw camper van(s), dancing in a second line in new orleans, or staring at the rooftops at sunset in paris.  

jenifer has shown her work throughout the united states in many galleries, boutiques, art show exhibitions & show halls - her work is in quite a few private collections.
