When taking Steve Gordon’s pottery class, be prepared to set aside all worries, ambitions and expectations. Just get lost in the mud.  

Art Escape Pottery Studio is tucked away in the Salish Mountains' foothills. To get there I took a left onto Tally Lake Road, my Toyota Tacoma rattling along a dirt path of dips and bumps. 

The studio, which Gordon opened for lessons and workshops around three years ago, sits behind his home. The cherry-colored wooden walls and corrugated roofing give his studio a calming rustic aura. Dozens of Gordon’s large clay creations are displayed amongst potted plants that spill over the shelves.
