Sophie Goode is a 24-year-old artist and creative living in Athens, GA. Sophie graduated in 2020 with a B.F.A. in Studio Art from the University of Georgia, where she focused in Ceramics, particularly functional pottery. While still in school, she started her own pottery business through Etsy, and she continues to sell work online and at local craft markets. She values the bond between artist and consumer, and is fascinated by the incorporation of art into everyday routine.
Sophie currently holds the role of Studio Manager at Southern Star Studio, a communal studio space in Athens for self-directed potters. She curates their social media, maintains their gallery, and is the first point of contact for studio members.
Aside from pottery, Sophie loves spending time outdoors, reading and camping, and being surrounded by the beauty of nature. She also enjoys painting and embroidery, social ballroom dancing, bouldering, and cooking. She draws inspiration for her work from all of these places, and is always searching for new ways to incorporate her unique experiences into art that appeals to a wide range of individuals.
