Artist Statement:
I work in Jamaica, the
Caribbean island of wood and
water. I use stoneware clay
from Florida, all fired at
cone 9 (1285 deg. C). Most of
my work is wheel thrown
functional ware with an
artistic flare. I build all my
own equipment like kilns and
wheels from local materials,
real pioneer style.
Glaze materials sourced
locally include feldspar,
whiting, granite, silica, wood
ash, bone ash and other
minerals like black beach
sand. These reflect the
natural earth colours, as seen
in my work. I also like to
carve the clay or scrape the
glaze off to create
contrasting highlights.
My main influences have been
Phil Rogers and Shoji Hamada.I
call myself the Spiritual
Potter as this reflects not
only my work but my new path
to enlightenment.
More details of each work are
available on request.
