Guenola Lefeuvre was born and raised in the northern suburbs of Chicago. Her passion for clay started on a kick-wheel in high-school and has followed her all over the world. Finally settling in Portland, Maine, she finds most of her inspiration on the Maine Coastline. She spends most of her time teaching and working out of Portland Pottery. She works mostly in high-fired porcelain due to its natural beauty, transparency & durability. She starts on the wheel with her forms and once the clay is sufficiently dried, she trims and adds surface texture to create a unique, functional piece of texture.

I am primarily self-taught with several years of art edu back in the 70’s. My artistry had sort of whittled back to photography due to much work and many children and was purely for my pleasure and preserving a sane frame of mind. As life evolves through twists ‘n turns I decided to act on my passions. I love the creative process, greatly enjoy seeing how consumers react – then came the Ah-hah moment when pieces were sought, admired, and sold. My painted photographs became wearable art. Inspiration happens daily, moment by moment.

I began collecting rocks/minerals/specimens at an early age and would visit the Peabody Museum in Boston. After moving to Maine in the early 1970s, I would go rock hunting at the quarries and mines, making friends with the local miners. I started cutting cabochons and later took jewelry fabrication and stone setting lessons from Addison Saunders. Nature in all its forms is my inspiration.
