Although my fascination with clay started at a very early age, it was decades later that this medium proved to be a lifesaver for me as well. Today, my ”Ceramic heART Wall Sculptures" are colorful expressions of my authentic, raw, naked, vulnerable… strength, as I experience this fabulous, wondrous, and sometimes very scary, and painful, precious, human life. Although I continue to create fine, functional, whimsical wares, my Ceramic Heart Wall Sculptures give a true voice to the whole spectrum of being human and shine with more than a modicum of timelessness and humor as well.
Fleeting moments of intimacy in nature; my experience with the depths of my own being; as well as my great love, compassion, and connection with other sentient beings is what inspires my art. Earthenware clay, a forgiving & friendly medium to work with allows me to express genuinely, intricately, and most exquisitely in ways I could not with another medium or words alone.
The mysterious kiln gods always have a hand in my work which undoubtedly adds to the magic of every piece.
