High fire stoneware, wheel-thrown and-hand built, utilitarian and non-utilitarian.
I make functional ware because it satisfies my sense of practicality. I make large forms, such as stools, tables and lamp bases because it satisfies my will. I make non-functional work because it satisfies my sense of freedom and holds the possibility of novel expression. I like to experiment, push at the edges of my skill and the confines of the clay.
I’ve been using ceramics as a primary means of creative expression for over twenty years and it’s never boring, ever challenging and it’s my passion.
