Artist Statement:
I'm intriqued by
balance/off-balance and
exaggeration and I look for
postures that remind me of
those. It's often the smallest
detail that makes a piece
suddenly take on a
recognizable persona. Music,
circus acts, people and plant
life run through my head as I
work and feel my way through
the form.
My work almost always starts
on the wheel and I throw a
base that acts as a pedestal
for a more elaborate lid. The
pieces continue to appear more
precarious, but the longest
spires I can pull make the
best "canvases" for animating
movement. I create textures
through trimming and carving
that play with the glazes,
pooling and breaking over the
horizontal ridges to create a
juxtaposition of color.
