Her first production pieces were large urns inspired by ancient Minoan and Mycenaean designs. However, her work soon shifted to tableware, which has become the defining signature of her career. The artist founded Terrafirma Ceramics in New York City 1980. She produces simple silhouettes made vibrant by her focus on texture and pattern, created by painting through textiles and fine lace. Evans continues to produce her work out of her studio in New York City, the largest of only a few potteries left in NYC.
