Artist Statement:
Animals play such an important
role in our daily lives, and I
have always been drawn to
them. I like the way they
express themselves, the way
they are shaped, and the fact
that they almost always
forgive. In my sculptural
representations, I am not so
much concerned with the
details or specifics, but more
the feeling that a particular
creature evokes. I try to say
as much as possible with the
least amount of information -
hopefully allowing for an
openness of interpretation....

| Your Personal Biography |
After graduation from Boston's School of the Museum of Fine Arts, I spent a summer at the Skowhegan School of Painting and Sculpture in Maine, studying with resident and visiting artists Jake Berthot, David Hockney, Louise Nevelson, Frank Stella, and Ron Bladen. After years of painting and commercial ilustration - with my children in school, I returned to clay, my first passion. I have a studio in the vibrant railyard neighborhood of Santa Fe, and have been fortunate to be included in the Lark publication: 500 Animals in Clay, juried by Joe Bova. My work is also currently featured in Ceramics: Art And Perception No.71 |
