I want my work to add beauty and usefulness to people’s lives, whether it’s the ceramic tile on their hearth or their favorite coffee mug

In the garden or in the studio I want to have my hands in the earth. I like the directness and malleable qualities of clay. I enjoy the creative act and the challenge of transforming ideas into reality. I want my work to add beauty and usefulness to people’s lives, whether it’s the ceramic tile on their hearth or their favorite coffee mug. The product is always a collaboration between materials, process, ideas and skill. There is an excitement in the alchemy of the kiln’s fire, and the result is always a surprise.
