I make ceramic forms of abstract, figurative nature. These vessels may be derived from the torso or from basic bottles. Artist statement below.
I am the featured artist at Collective Visions Gallery in Bremerton, WA. Join us for the opening reception 7 June 2019.
Over the past fifteen years my work has evolved. I have focused on through various themes but the figure always returns
My work is fired in either an anagama kiln or a soda kiln. These firings bring together a group of congenial and professional ceramic artists. These events in Seabeck are highlights of the year.
The show is on! Hope to see you!
My work is for sale at Collective Visions Gallery in Bremerton, WA

Slab building lends itself to bottles. Bottles are a traditional form for holding water, wine, grain and flowers. Bottles are some of the earliest finds related to human culture
This series were created using strips of clay, giving the whole a complex additive texture
There is always a use for one of these. No two are alike; each has it's own personality.
Sometimes one just has to have fun!
Sometimes shapes just emerge
