Artist Statement

“Color fusion” is how I describe my current work, as I explore how different glazes overlap and melt together to make different colors. The white porcelain clay I use is a blank canvas. I strive for simplicity of form and functional perfection. All pieces are made on a potter’s wheel and fired to high temperature in a gas kiln. In each firing I test new colors, with the goal of making useful things that are beautifully unique. After more than thirty years on the potter’s wheel, I’m still excited to see what the fire has done with each kiln opening.
