Inspired by the beauty found in the natural world, my work is not an imitation of any real living thing, but rather life forms that might exist in some other-worldly place. Micro-organisms, fungi, seeds, cacti and sea life have been observed in great detail, which have inspired me to create these “organic possibilities.”

Using a potter’s wheel and various hand-building techniques, my work is produced solely by myself in my studio. My clay of choice is a low-fire red earthenware clay that is then finished using oxide stains, underglazes, and my signature crawl glaze to create a rich textural, colorful surface that is unique to my work.

I have a sincere passion to create objects with clay and this energy radiates from within me into the work I produce.
