A potter? A ceramicist? 

I'm attracted to both callings, thus the wide range of work I enjoy doing. Transforming lumps and slabs of clay into vessels or objects for a functional and decorative purpose touches only on the beginning of my daily studio work . From there, I explore the tactile and visual textures of the clay, layering slips and glazes. Finished  works are inspired from the surface of the earth's changing landscapes of texture and color.

I am constantly motivated onward to explore surface textures and incorporate them into finished pieces. I am a "form maker", my inner child playfully creating a visual experience for both the user and myself.
