ARTIST STATEMENT: As a second career, I have been making pots consistently for about 16 years. Pieces that are scaled for table or kitchen hold the greatest interest for me, and those are the pots most likely to become an active part of the daily household. Bowls, plates and platters, a variety of pouring pots, lidded and open containers, vases, and mugs and other drinking vessels comprise the majority of my output. My primary materials are porcelain clay, kaolin slips and a small number of glazes, and I fire my wood-burning kiln approximately 6 times a year. The pots are primarily wheel-thrown, frequently altered out of round, with hand-built additions. I approach each piece individually and try to explore its potential as an expressive object.
