Studio Description:
I have worked as a professional artist, illustrator and designer since 1992. I have been working with clay for over 10 years and I enjoy handbuilding in particular. It’s exciting to see how my 2D work transfers into 3D work. My work is deeply narrative and personal. Most of my pieces are high fired to cone 10 in a gas fired kiln. I use underglazes thickly painted for the colors and a variety of high fire underglaze pens. I also enjoy working with low fire clay as color is my passion, and a low fire glaze holds those colors well. I also do a lot of printmaking on clay surfaces. Often I will use a linoleum block I’ve printed on paper, then turn around and print it directly onto clay. I enjoy capturing whimsy and pulling it into my work.
