ARTIST STATEMENT
My pottery is meant for everyday enjoyment. Bold shapes and vibrant colors catch the eye. Flowing glazes and pinched interiors juxtapose organized patterns and clean lines. Every surface of my work, including the bottom, is comprised of differing tactile qualities. These elements are all meant to engage the senses.
The crisp lines and geometric elements in my pottery are manifestations of my impulse to find order even in the squishiest, most unpredictable of materials.
