Hello, pottery lover!

I hope that my love for clay seeps through my fingers and lives on in my pots for you to appreciate. The world can be a happier place through art.

My Process

My pots are usually thrown on a pottery wheel (Shimpo VL Whisper), although I also hand build and alter pots after they are formed. My pieces are often highly decorated using slip and underglaze to create sgraffito and/or mishima embellishments. Additional techniques include carving, water etching, homemade newsprint underglaze transfers. Sometimes I  even add sculptural elements to my work.
