About My Work
____________________________________
My clay vessels start with a solid piece of clay that I shape on the potter's wheel. I then sculpt, smooth, and polish the entire piece to reveal its true form, 12 different steps in all.
My metal pieces are welded by hand, one piece of steel at a time, until they achieve their form. The clay milieu are shaped, glazed and fired, which creates their unique color combinations.
My paintings are created on a "canvas" made from wood, which I layer with hand-tinted epoxy to create rich, saturated colors with a high gloss finish.
About Me
_________________________
I enjoy working in many mediums, including wood, clay, metal and epoxy. I have never been content to follow ; I prefer for it to be me, in my studio, pushing the boundaries of what I can do with the materials at hand. Instead of thinking outside the box, I prefer to think "Why do you need the box?"
