Welcome to Maryhill Clayworks, a very small pottery and sculpture shop that sits on the edge of the dairy farm where Jacques Schickel was born. He grew up in a family of 8 brothers and 5 sisters in Dryden, NY about 12 miles north of Ithaca. After a youthful quest to see a bit of the world and a year living in Venezuela, Schickel became interested in following in the artistic and design traditions of his family -- his great grandfather, both grandfathers, an uncle and several brothers and sisters. His artistic quest has led him in several directions, sharpening his eye and instructing his hand in precision of expression. Now he has returned to his source to produce fine art which delights as it is used daily in making a home.
