After a 35 year career in higher education I have transformed into a full-time potter. Since then I have taken 80+ workshops, experimented with different techniques, forms and methods and developed my own style. My forms are hand built and textured mainly in white stoneware. My vessels reflect a contemporary, minimalist sensibility while evoking ties to the ancient. I favor stains to highlight the textures on the surface eschewing glaze so that the form is not overpowered on the surface.
