Artist’s Statement
I am a potter who grew up in a family of artists. The natural world of forests and seascapes, with the seeming chaos of color, form and texture, is the basis of much of my work. I use the natural clay bodies, stains, oxides and glazes to enhance the forms and textures on my work. I incorporate lizards, frogs and birds into many of my forms. I enjoy making work that reveals something different each time it’s looked at.  I use combinations of glazes to enhance the surfaces of my functional ware. I have also developed a collection of unique Judaic art comprised of items that can be used in many holiday celebrations as well as daily life.
