Handmade Pottery

My first experiments with clay were on the potter's wheel in Portland, OR when I was seven years old. It was love at first touch and I continued spending Tuesday nights making ceramics for many years. My parents' house was filled with masks on the walls and unique tableware.

I love to experiment with different types of clay and building techniques. Lately, I'm exploring more fine art ceramics and sculpture. Yet at some point, I'm always drawn back to the wheel to make something functional for the kitchen, home or garden. I find great satisfaction in the daily use of hand crafted pottery.
