Driven to create, explore, and experiment.

I have often said that my greatest strength as an artist is my very low standards! I love learning new things, and the best way I have found is to get comfortable with being bad at them. My lack of focus means that whenever I have the opportunity to try something new, I jump at the chance, and I am always excited to pass on whatever I have learned! I have been making art in all kinds of media for most of my life. After growing up in Washington, DC, I moved here and graduated from the University of Vermont in 2013 with degrees in Studio Art and Classical Civilizations. I have worked in clay, paint, charcoal, ink, glass, fiber, wood, watercolor, and anything else I can think of! I work as a baker and, occasionally, as a yoga teacher and live in South Burlington with my spouse, our cats, and arguably too many plants.

I am an interdisciplinary artist working primarily in printmaking, textiles, and sculpture. Nature, folk art, religious and occult iconography, and the human figure are some of my main artistic influences and inspirations. Repetition of images and patterns is an important part of my creative practice, always asking me to consider materials and subject matter through the lens of iteration.

Daisy Hutter is beyond excited to be back at SCS for another year of teaching! In May of 2022, she graduated with a degree in Art Education from the University of Vermont. This fall, she moved from Burlington to Shelburne and quickly became involved in the community. Be sure to visit Daisy's booth at the Shelburne Farmers Market on Saturdays where she sells her handmade jewelry. Daisy is a mixed media artist who specializes in collage and sculpture. She is most inspired by found materials, including environmental themes in much of her work. She is also a participating artist in Cow Parade 2023 benefiting Dana-Farber Cancer Institute. As a teaching artist, Daisy loves sharing her passion for art with the students she teaches.
