Statement

Simplicity of design and a fascination with curves and intersecting lines are important elements in building my sculptures.

I'm inspired to create open abstract shapes with sensual folds and joyful colors, and in the process discover new potential in both form and finish.  Currently the shapes of my bisque-fired clay (or sometimes paper-clay), receive a strengthening coat of marbledust-cement.  This process also allows for an exploration of different approaches to color and texture for the pieces.

Working occasionally with malleable aluminum mesh I’ve found this medium offers a refreshing contrast to my work with ceramics. Most of my mesh pieces can be hung in the air, allowing for shadows and motion. In both clay and metal the exploration of open spaces is an integral part of my final forms.
