By Kyla Close Feb 22, 2021 12:41 PM Pottery is one of the oldest art practices. The oldest pieces of pottery are believed to be found in China’s Hunan Provence and are about 15,400 years old. It’s safe to say it can last a lifetime. Kristy Suckling is a nurse by trade, but a year and a half ago she took a leap of faith into the pottery world. “I was finding that I didn’t have a lot to do to fulfill myself. And so, I was kind of getting bored. My kids are now growing, and you know, being single, I was looking for something to add to my life. So, I decided to go out and take a lesson at Pinecraft and Elmer from there, I really enjoyed it.”
