Pottery artists statements and biography

          I first trained as a potter and still work with the ceramic attribute of containment in mind.

          Artist Statement:

          I strive to make comfortable and beautiful pots for the home that enhance the pleasure of food and the nourishment of the soul. In a world that typically severs the connection of object (or food) and maker (or grower/cook), I find it necessary to produce functional pottery that may help remind us of our earthly surroundings and our ability to create and enjoy the handmade/homegrown in our daily lives.

          Nature plays a large role in my inspiration for both the design and decoration of the pottery.

          I am primarily inspired by my natural environment which includes a rich, red clay dirt and lush, green mountains that bloom with color in the spring.

          6. I also enjoy looking at the multi-layered colors of birds’ feathers. These colors and patterns roll around in my memory, synthesize and are drawn out over the clay, either in the way I shape wet, newly thrown clay or apply brush strokes of ceramic colorants to the surface.

          It is my intention for each pot to be unique.
