Chaucy was born and raised in the St. Louis area. She received a BFA in Sculpture and Ceramics from Fontbonne University in St. Louis, Missouri in 1989. After moving to Denver, Colorado in May of 1989, she established a small studio and never looked back. Her current studio, Pottery by Chaucy, was started in 1993 in Parker, Colorado. She has been creating new designs of functional stoneware pottery every year and currently has around 15 different beautiful designs for sale in approximately 4 or 5 local gift and home décor shops. Her love of nature and her Colorado surroundings is evident in her work. She combines her skills as a potter and sculptor together to create functional dinnerware with a warm, whimsical feel of nature and wildlife. You may also find her at several local arts and crafts fairs throughout the year.
