I love how cold clay feels, but then fires to a finish that can feel warm in its shape and color.
I like to create beautiful and functional shapes, but I love being able to paint and draw on a freshly fired bisque ware. I mainly work with black oxide because it’s fun for me to watch how one shade of oxide changes as its absorbed by the porous surface.
I once took a ceramics course early in my college years and I dabbled again years after college.
I am not classically trained but I enjoy what I do and hope that others will also enjoy my pieces or at least feel the passion that I have in making each and every piece.
I wouldn’t be sharing my pieces if it wasn’t for my loving and supportive husband who encourages me to explore my happiness every day and also for our loving dog, Rufus, who guards the house while I go and play with dirt.
