Ceramic Artist

 

"I enjoy making pots for everyday use; each is a subtle variation of a form - usually thrown in a series. I am a perfectionist (as much as the process allows) and am constantly in search of the perfect surface and ideal form while striving to create pots that have life and vitality."

Career Highlights:

  • Casserole in the permanent collection of the Renwick Gallery of the Smithsonian American Art Museum, Washington, DC.
  • 2002 - Best Functional, "State of Clay", Lexington Arts and Crafts Society, Lexington, MA

  • 2000 - Purchase Award, "Focus on Function", The Minneapolis Institute of Arts, Minneapolis, MN

  • "California Design 2002", 600 Townsend, San Francisco, CA

  • 1987 Image, San Francisco Examiner, November 22, cover
