Meet Lony Maya Neubauer, a passionate artist with a unique journey. Originally hailing from the picturesque Island of Föhr in the northern part of Germany, Lony's adventurous spirit led her across the ocean to the sunny shores of California.

Her journey in the United States has seen her call both Northern and Southern California home. Today, Lony resides in Vallejo, a charming waterfront community just a short drive from the vibrant city of San Francisco.

Lony's artistic journey with clay began in her junior high school years, igniting a deep-seated passion that only grew stronger with time. This unwavering love for the visual arts inspired her to embark on a ceramics class in Walnut Creek, California, back in January 2018.

In October of the same year, Lony found her artistic haven at the Mare Island Art Studios, previously known as the Coal Shed Art Studio, situated on the historic Mare Island. She takes pride in being part of a talented community of 18 resident artists, a diverse group spanning painters, ceramists, sculptors, metalworkers, woodworkers, printmakers, photographers, textile artists, and creators of various other mediums. Together, they offer support and camaraderie for fellow artists while regularly showcasing their creations at the Mare Island Art Studios' gallery.

Lony's artistic journey is a testament to her dedication to the craft, and her presence is a valuable addition to this vibrant creative community.
