With a joyful heart and clay-covered hands, May Lucas brings over a decade of pottery experience—and a lifetime of artistic curiosity—to the studio she founded: Elegant & Earthy. Rooted in handmade beauty, soulful creativity, and warm hospitality, her work reflects a deep love for nature, storytelling, and the art of home entertaining. Known for her signature techniques—like vinyl cutout embellishments and layered underglaze designs—May blends refined craftsmanship with playful exploration.

After years of teaching at Spruill Center for the Arts in Georgia and hosting private lessons in her studio, May now shares her passion for wheel throwing and hand-building in Pennsylvania.

Her teaching style is thoughtful, encouraging, and always full of heart, whether you're creating your very first mug or crafting a complete dinnerware set,  Her classes are more than just lessons—they’re community-centered gatherings where students are invited to create, connect, and celebrate their artistic voices.

When she’s not at the wheel, you’ll find May entertaining at home, exploring local farms and flea markets, bird watching, fly fishing, gardening, or sharing cozy moments with her two beloved golden doodles.
