In my
work I try to utilize simple techniques. This allows for freedom
of ideas and process. Shape, form, use and color inform and
question other possibilities. My work uses shape and form to
inflate color. Working within the realm of function expands
the potential. History of ceramics, painting and sculpture collide.
Clay has a simple directness - it prints beautifully.
The field of ceramics is undergoing some exciting technical
changes that will eventually by used by the ceramic artist.
The wall needs to have a door.
