Wayne Branum started making pottery in the late 1960's, while attending the University of Minnesota. He studied with Curtis Hoard and Warren MacKenzie.
Branum visited Japan in 1973 with MacKenzie and four other potters to tour various pottery centers around the country. He returned in 1977 for six weeks to study kiln designs and make pots in the Mashiko Japan studio of Takeo Sudo as well as visiting noted potters like Shoji Hamada and others in Mashiko. Upon returning to MN, he constructed a multi chambered wood fired kiln in the style of the Mashiko kilns used by potters like Shoji Hamada and Tatsuzo Shimaoka.
