Welcome to my world!

I have finally ventured into a gallery- Commonwheel Artists Co-op at 102 Canon Ave in Manitou Springs, CO
Since I’m not a member of the cooperative, I just have some things there for their August show, and then again at the holidays.
It’s a wonderful gallery. Stop by if you’re in town.

Another place to see my work is at Misty Mountain Collective at 705 N. Nevada Ave. It’s a cozy place to sit and relax with a coffee.

As time goes by, I find that most of my pieces nowadays are personal requests. That seems to be working well, so if you want to make a request, contact me by messaging through my Facebook or Instagram accounts, or by e-mail.
I will let you know how much I am asking and we will make an arrangement for you to get your piece.

Thank you so much for your interest and support!

ABOUT MARTY SLAYDEN

Hi! I’m Marty. I used to be a teacher, but now I am an artist.  Making things with my hands has brought me joy ever since I was a small child, so it makes me very happy now to do it full time. I enjoy working in various mediums – sewing, needle felting, and encaustic painting, but currently my main pursuit is pottery.

Whimsical Pottery


I give my pottery away to people who are willing to donate my asking price to Westside Cares, a Colorado Springs organization. I rarely accept commissions, but sometimes I am willing. If you are interested in my work, please follow my social media accounts or contact me via e-mail. Thank you for stopping by!
