LC McGee
LC McGee is a ceramic artist and potter whose creative journey began early in childhood. She began her formal art education at Cochise College in Sierra Vista, Arizona, where she committed to pursuing an art career. After moving to Florida in the mid-’90s and taking a brief detour into real estate for about a year, she returned to art school at the University of South Florida in the late 1990s.
Originally a sculpture student, LC quickly found her passion in clay and transitioned into ceramics within her first year. At USF, she studied under artists and educators Chuck Fager, Alan Eaker, Ed Ross, Ryan Berg, and Chuck McGee. This time marked a period of deep artistic development and personal growth. LC graduated with a BA in 2001 with a concentration in ceramics.
After graduating USF, LC also apprenticed under Peter Streit at a working ceramics studio, gaining valuable hands-on experience in professional studio practice.
Today, LC McGee’s work blends her love of mid-century modern design, the Atomic Age, and whimsical storytelling. Her red earth clay forms are richly decorated using layered techniques, often drawing inspiration from space, sci-fi, and her lifelong affection for animals—especially cats and dogs. Her pottery celebrates joy, whimsy, and the magic of everyday objects..
