With acute attention to detail and in careful conversation with the clay, I hand craft smoke fired vessels and seedpods as an antidote for our fast paced technological lives. My aim is to distill my sensory experience and highlight the astounding beauty and quiet wisdom of our forests. I hope, through my work, to bring others a sense of calm and a bit of wonder. My work has received awards of distinction from The Smithsonian Craft Show and The Society of Arts and Crafts and been featured in national and international craft and home magazines, including Ceramic Monthly.
