Portfolio of works

My work is a visual narrative of my surroundings and my past. I am a storyteller. In this series of “Mother Bunny” the bunny sculptures both support and are upended during the inevitable fleeing of her children. The bunnies tumble out and on top of each other as she stands watch. The strawberry pots are the colorful chaos that at times feels all-consuming in motherhood: the noise, the mayhem and being pulled into it while simultaneously being the catalyst. As a mother to many children I have embraced this exhilaration and fleeting joy of colors and growth. This experience is both exhausting and beautiful.

In this series of “Forest Pots’ I work with the surrounding trees and animals as a way to capture my daily interactions with nature. To create these works I use molds made from the trees, nuts, and leaves around me as well as hand formed sculptural elements and sprigs. My glazes are formulated to capture the qualities observed from my walks in the forest. You may notice many layers of green, crystals, metals and varying layers of gloss and depth in these works.

This limited edition of work is based from a memory and a longing to witness more clear nights filled with stars. All work is porcelain made by hand in my studio.

What would it look like if the animals had a picnic? In this series I tell a story of the animals around me having a picnic with loved ones.

This series of jars are a collection of small works, most under 3 inches high. They are bumble bees, beetles and flowers interacting with one another as I see them in my yard.

In this selection of work I pay homage to the flowers on our gardens as well as the ones that wrap the rims of so may teacups on our shelves and curios. The work is a selection of stoneware, porcelain and overglazes.
