I create functional ceramic pieces that bring a little joy to the daily grind. My colorful gradients add a touch of modern to the traditional medium. Each piece is thrown on the wheel and therefore unique. My surface treatment is playful and bright, yet sophisticated. I’m driven by the challenge of ceramics and the endless possibility of the medium. Much of my personality shows through my work. The gradients imply a painterly spontaneity, and my patterns a deliberate discipline to a plan. My hope is to evoke a feeling of delight from the viewer, much like I experience when I see a piece finally complete. Each piece is thrown on the wheel, hand altered, hand painted with slip in colorful combinations, glazed & fired multiple times. Many are detailed w/ gold luster and fired a third time!
