Welcome to the Gallery!




We are very excited to welcome Joanna Griffin 
to our family of artists at Paint Metal and Mud!





Joanna has been working in CLAY and COLOR and WORD for over 25 Montana years.  All three are intrinsic to her art and are presented on finely designed and handcrafted pottery.  Looking for inspiration?  For a soothing comforting mug or a wedding gift that sings out a blessing?  With the spirit of a writer, she blends and weaves both graphic design and form along with brilliant color and verse. Her Montana roots echo a hint of landscape, while her native born African roots present themselves in whimsical figures and bright pattern..  "It has all evolved into something I perceive as a functional greeting card. ~ Dishwasher safe and designed to provide years of inspiration and function."

Born in Zimbabwe to missionary parents, Joanna graduated from Berea College, KY with a focus on clay. 
Her Montana journey began in 1981 and she has resided in Kalispell slnce 1984.

Stop in to see her beautiful and functional art in the gallery, and be sure to check out her website too:
