D. E. Hermann
While in California at university, Denise studied Art History, and has been involved in the arts since. While she enjoys working in various media, her main focus is on her favorites: clay and writing.
"To me, writing is verbal clay. I love language and, just like when my hands craft a beautiful piece in clay, the same joy is there when I compose a well written passage on the page. Both potter and writer use the same three basic ingredients: heart, hand, and creative spirit."
Member of WV Writers and Sisters In Crime, Denise often attends local conferences and workshops. She leads a writers retreat at Capon Springs & Farm Resort twice a year in Spring and Fall through Shepherd University Lifelong Learning.
Ceramic artist and writer, D. E. Hermann lives in Shepherdstown, WV. She works in a refurbished four stall barn behind her home and shares her life with her husband of 40 years, three dogs, three cats, a hedgehog, and a flock of hens.
