I fell in love with this matter called clay in high school and have played with it and created pottery ever since. Several years ago, I went back to hand-building and although I have a line of functional ware, wall art is what keeps me creative and keeps the juices flowing.

Artist's Statement
My vision is to place unique, one-of-a-kind ceramic art in the hands of clients so to transform the appearance of their home, office or public building. Although my work is contemporary in nature, there is also a primitive appeal, because the pieces are slowly pit-fired in straw after the kiln firing. I use several types of clay for different types of work. Some for glaze-firing some for smoke-firing-- red, white and paper clay bodies. I like them all. I use impressions and carvings onto my tiles. I am always lunging forward to the next new creation, whether it be wall murals, tables or sculpture and the excitement it brings me!
