My art work consists of Raku pieces, figurative sculpture, and functional stoneware pieces. The Raku pieces reflect the relationship between the dynamic forces of fire, clay, water, and air, and are a representation of this ancient Japanese firing technique. My sculptural work has been influenced by prehistoric art such as the Great Mother figures from the Neolithic period, as well as classical sculpture. I am particularly drawn to the feminine energy of the Celtic triple spiral, a symbol which is evident in much of my functional stoneware.
