Artist Statement
My work is intuitive...sometimes figurative...often functional. Influenced by nature, my love of cooking, gardening, and nature...and yes sometimes politics and the headlines and concerns of the day.
Mostly, I want people who live with my work to smile when they see it...touch...handle and use. Currently I'm diving back into mid firing electric at home. But have access to cone 10 reduction...and wonderful workshops and craft schools...both here in Maine and abroad.
For the past few years I've been focusing on surface...and sculpting skills...lately, incorporating my love of sculpture adding more detail to the surface...I am starting to get back to throwing and am happy with the looseness...in some of my recent work...I look forward to a few wood firings this year with the NHPG.
Thanks for listening.
