Sculptural and Functional Work
Sculptural Masks
As explorations of texture, form, and glaze, these masks suggest conversations, sometimes "with tea," about the primitive and the contemporary in the human spirit. As Oscar Wilde once said, "Man is least himself when he talks in his own person. Give him a mask and he will tell you the truth."
Bowls Beyond Function
Multi-fired and sculptural, these "bowls" and platters, designed for hanging reflect mood, theme, and concept through craggy and eroded surfaces. (Not intended for food.”)
Stoneware
High-fired and durable, useful and beautiful, these functional pieces are characterized by a wax-resist circle and line pattern. Happily, all are safe for microwave, oven, and dishwasher.
