About Me

     ​Since childhood I have always loved "making things". In 1988, I took a workshop in colored porcelain and realized immediately that clay was the medium for me. I began to explore clay and the many possibilities that present themselves as the imagination and material itself are stretched. Wheelwork soon became my passion; I found myself trying to express feelings of passion, longing and reaching out as I formed pieces with large round curves, slender necks and flaring rims. I became drawn to spirals and curving lines and so incorporated these elements into my work. I mixed many glaze recipes to find glazes that worked well with my shapes and learned to layer several glazes to get the depth and variegation that I was looking for. My work is generally functional, as well as decorative. I work in both porcelain and stoneware.

     I enjoy experimenting with clay and find that each new venue I explore leads to many others. For me, clay is exciting, sensual, expressive and alive. I love to touch it and form it and see it become something right before my eyes. Clay is the perfect companion for my creative side.
