Hand thrown pottery by Doug

Doug is a Bay Area ceramic artist and the heart and hands behind Fifth Season Studio. Specializing in Raku, sculptural pieces, and ceramic paintings, his work is inspired by the untamed beauty of nature, which is also the muse behind the name. The ‘Fifth Season’ represents the extraordinary moments that transcend the usual four, much like the unique character of each piece he crafts from his East Bay studio. Doug builds and fires each piece by hand, creating fine art that balances raw, organic textures with modern, intentional design.
