Medium: Ceramics

Clean lines and delicious color are signature to my work. I collect rocks and other found items, using them as forms for unique, organic vessels. Multiple layers of pigment build rich texture and a tactile finish that begs to be touched.

I enjoy many styles and eras but most drawn to the simple functionality for which the mid-century Scandinavian designers became well recognized.
I lean toward striking color combinations, stylized botanicals and a bit of free-form pencil scribbling. Studio open year-round by appointment.
