Welcome back to Sus Art Club — where we make creativity sustainable again. This week we sit down with Savannah Strickroth (@savannah.strickroth / @shop.studiojane), the ceramic artist and painter behind Studio Jane. From sewing puppets in kindergarten to launching her full-time art practice inside Studio Union, Savannah takes us through the winding path of creativity, motherhood, grief, and gut-trusting.
We get into it:
🧶 Growing up creative
✂️ Leaving the hair industry to return to art full-time
🥣 Discovering clay as a healing, grounding medium
👩👧👦 Balancing life as a working artist & mother
🔥 What to do when the kiln gods say “nah”
🤬 Why the myth of the full-time artist is lowkey BS
🤝 Building community while still needing solitude
We also talk ADHD, storytelling, burnout, creative identity, and finding your voice (with or without a broken front tooth).
📍Recorded at Studio Union in North Charleston, SC.
🛋️ Special thanks to Chris & Natalie for the cozy set-up.
