I work with both sculpture and pottery. Both are about form, surface, and color, but pottery is governed by function and limitations, while sculpture is not. Alternating between the two cleanses the creative palate and sometimes provides an exciting intersection between them.

The work I make is one of a kind, with some limited additions and collections of related forms. I go back and forth between organic, raw, and gestural forms to the opposite of formal, clean, and elegant forms. While carving solid blocks of clay, wheel-throwing, or hand-building, I watch for the unexpected occurrences in form and surface that inspire new directions in this coalescent process of physical creativity.
