Joan Miller's Profile

About Me:: Joan Miller Porcelain is a one woman operation. I love spending time in the studio and give my undivided attention to every single piece. I graduated from the MD Institute of Art in 1984 with a BFA in Fine Arts. I have been working almost exclusively in porcelain since 1989 when my jewelry business was born. Over the last six to seven years my interest has shifted from finished jewelry to beads. I love the collaborative nature of beads. I am thrilled when another artists chooses to use my beads in their creations. I had no idea there was a market for just beads until one summer at the Guilford Handcrafts Expo in CT...........I was working on some pieces in the back of my booth during a slow period and I kept having ladies come behind my counter and poke through my bead boxes. One of these ladies told me about a little bead show in CT and the rest is history.
