The goal in creating each of my sculptures is to thoroughly enjoy the process while creating something others will
take pleasure in as well.
I have lived in the Pacific Northwest my entire life and have always found it to be an inspiration and influence in my
art. I’ve worked in many mediums but have always returned to clay. There is something magical in the permanence of
clay. The way it comes from the earth as a soft and pliable substance but once fired will retain its shape for centuries.
Each of the sculptures I create are hand-built then carved, cast, stretched, combined and/or hammered. I use
several different methods for completion including: glaze, stain, acrylic paint, gold luster, copper leaf and more. The
salmon are created from my original sculpture then Raku fired to create the variety of color and patinas.
My studio on Fox Island is open by appointment.
