I make pottery that combines strong form with functionality and celebrates the materials and processes with which it was made. Wavy rims above curvy profiles add a sense of rhythm and provide a canvas for the effects of the atmospheric firing. Generous spouts, handles, and bellies speak to their given functions. Strong trimmed lines and soft connections tell the tales of the clay’s wet state and the maker’s hand. Muted tones of dark clay, with touches of bright glaze or flame-induced flashing, reminisce of the landscapes they were born in.
